You mean like the homosexual priests that are raping little boys and the billions of dollars the church is using to try and cover it up? Is that the kind of troubles you mean?
We know from the John Jay College of Criminal Justice investigation into this matter that almost all of the cases of the sexual abuse of minors that took place in Catholic institutions occurred between 1965 and 1985. (Job harps on 50 year old accusations)
By contrast, in the last five years, the average number of credible accusations made against 40,000 priests is exactly 7.6. Currently, it's down to .004%. No matter what number you pick, there is no entity in the United States today, private or public,
that can match this record..
The Catholic Church's record of aggressive and proactive protective measures is unparalleled in any organization today. Since the beginning of the abuse crisis, the Catholic Church:
-has instituted a "zero tolerance" policy in which any credibly accused priest is immediately
removed from ministry. Law enforcement is also notified;
-has trained over 5 million children in giving them skills to protect them from abuse;
-has trained over 2 million adults, including 99 percent of all priests, in recognizing signs of
abuse;
-has conducted over 2 million background checks, including those in the intensified screening
process for aspiring seminarians and priests;
-has installed "Victim Assistance Coordinators" in every diocese, "assuring victims that they
will be heard";
-has conducted annual independent audits of all dioceses to monitor compliance with the
groundbreaking*
2002 Charter for Protection of Children and Young People;
(that anti-Catholics don't want to hear about)
-has instituted in all dioceses abuse review boards – often composed of child welfare experts,
child psychologists, and abuse experts – to examine any claims of abuse against priests.
- the slightest suspicion of wrongdoing must be reported to the police, by order of canon law.
No other organization even comes close to implementing the measures the Catholic Church has taken to protect children in its care. In this regard, the Catholic Church in the 21st century
is the model for other institutions to follow in the safeguarding of youth.
