Related: About this forumNun in Argentina accused of helping priests sexually abuse students at school for deaf children
http://www.nydailynews.com/news/world/nun-accused-helping-priests-abuse-students-school-deaf-article-1.3140585BUENOS AIRES, Argentina A Roman Catholic nun from Japan has been arrested and charged on suspicion of helping priests sexually abuse children at a school for youths with hearing disabilities in Argentina, authorities said.
...
The case against the nun was launched after a former student accused of making her wear a diaper to cover up a hemorrhage after she was allegedly raped by priest Horacio Corbacho.
Corbacho, fellow priest Nicola Corradi and three other men were arrested last year after they were charged with sexually abusing at least two dozen students at the Provolo Institute. They are being held at a jail in Mendoza and have not spoken publicly since the arrest. If found guilty, the accused face 10 to 50 years in prison.
...
Advocates for clerical sex abuse have expressed anger that Corradi wasn't sanctioned by the Vatican and allegedly went on to abuse children in Pope Francis' native Argentina.

Like, it doesn't even shock me anymore. Neither the frequency, nor the base level of depravity.

And no decent person would ever give a single penny to this organization as long as this shit continues.
Right?

Are you saying that anyone who does is not decent?
Is that your position?
Are you saying the Catholic Church is "nothing but a huge pedophile ring."
Is that your position?

(82,333 posts)8. What do you propose should happen to these indecent people?
Unlike believers, i don't think they should be..:
a) Stoned to death
b) burned at the stake
c) shunned
etc, etc.
Take your pick.
Hopefully, one day, there won't need to be this ridiculous prerequisite in your country that public officials have to be pious, spiritual, religious etc. But, you guys just voted in trump as your president, so maybe in a few generations this dynamic will lessen or disappear entirely.
One can hope.
