The church has done it for decades. The church investigates that the people who testify are told to not go to the police and if they do they are excommunicated. The priests would often get moved from one diocese to another instead of just being kicked out and put on trial. The church purposely tried to cover up for many decades. This is the problem when you try to have the oath of celibacy is it you end up having homosexual Predator priests. Straight priests could still be in trouble for sexual assault.

The Baptists aren't any better. The Houston Chronicle just broke a story about how Baptist preachers have been abusing hundreds of children without public accountability.

Capt Gregory Prickett Greg, it's just human nature and I'm sure all denominations of Christianity, Judaism and even Islam may have this problem. It's just sad that the Catholic church has had this excommunication threats for decades. I remember reading about this back in 2003 where is the church had an actual memorandum on how to handle it and it was being shown online. It Was Written in Italian. It was a memorandum from the Vatican on is how to deal with this issue but it was still secretive and not Justice at all.

This is an arguement to allow married Priests in my view. Married Priests have broader life experience by virtue of being married and would make much better Priests.

Capt Gregory Prickett - Your telling me about a University you know nothing about and never attended. Actually it is the same with almost 100% course credit transfer between the schools from what I remember. Different from Marquette though.

SPC Erich Guenther - Did you even attend a Big Ten school at any time, or did you lie about that? It won't be hard to find out if you lied or not, all I have to do is call the registrar at UW-Madison to see if you've ever been a student there.

Capt Gregory Prickett - You really are insecure about Texas A&M and I made no derogatory comments about it. Also interesting.
