This subject comes up often. It has been suggested that child abuse is worse in some churches than in others, and that focusing on just one sector of faith is unfair and unjust.
The recent royal Commission of inquiry into child abuse in Australia took 5 years to complete. It was fully comprehensive, investigating through legal powers granted the Commission, to delve into every faith, every institution, whether church, orphanage, school, any institution of whatever faith background, if they had anything to do with education, or the welfare of children, or otherwise, they came under the commission's very serious gaze.
What transpired can be seen in the following report...

The whole catholic institution is a conundrum to the world outside of their inner circle, even to those claiming to be catholic church members.
Beginning with a JEW, appointed by Jesus, along with other JEWS to carry on Jesus' mission to speak the word of God TO the Lost Jews.
Men in Scripture calling Jews who followed after Jesus' teachings, whom such Jews, believed Jesus to be the Jewish Christ Messiah....other men....calling them Christians.
A group of Gentiles, calling themselves Christians, forming a church, they called catholic, and appointing a DEAD JEW, unbeknownst to him, as the First holy father, of their Gentile church......
Totally in agreement with what Jesus had appointed this Jew (called Peter) to do....Right? LOL
Totally in agreement with what this JEW (called Peter) did during his lifetime....Right? LOL
Years of "appointed" Non-Jewish men, claiming the secession of KEY holders given a Jewish man BY Jesus Himself.....hummm!
On about 1929, the Central catholic church located in Italy and the place for the catholic appointed "holy father" of the catholics to be his home......such place becomes its own independent state....
and independent Government!
Geographical legal Jurisdiction
Personal legal Jurisdiction
Subject Matter legal Jurisdiction
Nothing NEW:
Governments have appointed head honchos.
Governments have appointed representatives.
Governments have LAWS.
Governments EXCLUDE those appointed from being SUBJECT TO the SAME scrunity and punishments, as applies to the WHOLE of the common "members" of the group.
( the Pharisee syndrome ... NOT promoted by Jesus....rather in fact...Jesus spoke against such behavior....yet adopted by the catholic church and independent state government )
Nothing NEW:
Catholic "appointees" have been subject to, The protection of their "Government"....in the same manner, Other world-wide "governments" historically have "protected" their "own" from "subjection to scrunity, punishments, of "their" government and OTHER governments!
In short it is simply called modernly "black ops".
While a particular "government" does not openly promote "corruption"....behind closed doors....IF one (representing the government) engages in "corruption"....keep it secret and don't get caught....Because "THE" government can not openly acknowledge or condone your "corruption".
The catholic "government" is no different....
To whisk away in secret, any "appointed" rep. Found in a corrupt hot mess....in hopes of "rehabilitation"....and the "public at large...the common members of the group"....none the wiser. And of course...any member of the group (public at large), who make accusations....are simply conspiracy theorists or mental cases, or conveniently booted out.
The catholic CASE is unique...because it IS a Religious organization, under the secrecy of a state organized and recognized "government".
The "catholic" government is as receptive to being scrutinized and investigated.....by a FOREIGN Government....as is North Korea receptive to being scrutinized and investigated by a FOREIGN Government.
It's a Condunrum for "catholics"....
Their Allegience is to:
The "government" of the catholic "state"
AND
Supposedly the "government" of another country in which they are citizens...
AND
Those two Governments Laws "conflict".
God Bless,
