E gave some very good information. I’d also like to bring up one further point.

If you look up Scott Phillips’(the author of this article) written endeavors, his position on other issues (Boy Scouts, Sex Clubs, 9/11, etc) will help you understand why he wrote the article on the Catholic Church in this manner. He blames organized religion for the evils of the world (i.e.: God & Allah’s Royal Rumble).

Unfortunately, he will probably graduate with his degree in Journalism. He will then join our country’s current members of the media who report the story they want to tell rather than report the entire truth. Ask yourself, is this a scandal primarily of Pedophilia or Homosexuality. According to our media, it is of the former.

Based on the information currently available, homosexuality is the primary vice behind a majority of these abuse cases. Sexual activity with a post-pubescent male is NOT pedophilia. The media would rather not go there because to them the homosexual lifestyle is OK.

So what do you do? You respond to his article with reason (the response "E" provided is outstanding). Then, you pray for Scott Phillips.

Your brother in Christ,

Daniel
