Catholic Bishop: Children Want to Be Sexually Abused (2010)

[cleanhippie]

I self-deleted my first OP and am reposting this because the other OP got hijacked and I had a legitimate question posed to Catholics that I was hoping to get an answer to. So here it is again.

The Bishop of Tenerife provided an interesting explanation for the vast numbers of children raped by Catholic priests: They asked for it.

In 2007, when the American Catholic Church was reeling from sex abuse scandals but not so much Europe, the Bishop of Tenerife, Bernardo Álvarez, made some interesting Christmas holiday comments.

In a Christmas Eve interview with La Opinión de Tenerife, Bishop Alvarez said that there are children who want to be abused:

There are 13 year old adolescents who are under age and who are perfectly in agreement with, and what’s more wanting it, and if you are careless they will even provoke you.

That’s right, the rapists aren’t the priests. It’s those seductive tempters and temptresses, fresh-faced whores all, bending over in front of priests, flaunting their taut, young, moist flesh, just begging to be used as the sexual playthings of perverted pedophiles (and hebephiles) who have sworn to their imaginary friend that they will be celibate for life.

Yes, this is a couple of years old, but I bring it up to ask our Catholic brethren here a question: Why do you continue to support, through church attendance, monetary donation, and time, an institution that condones this kind of behavior in its leadership?

3. Thanks. I knew I could count on you.

Especially when it comes to totally misrepresenting a situation.



Well done.


Care to try again and stay on topic of the OP, or are you done now.

4. He sounds just like the militant atheists

except they are not child rapists, usually sound rational and level headed and the militant ascpect isn't real.
Other than that...

Another blathering from the criminal organization that is the Catholic church. Go Newt, you fit right in.

5. I don't get it either man,

If a teacher gets caught doing this they are calling for them to be hung. When a priest does it most of them shut the fuck up and go to church.
I always point shit like this out on facebook and other places. The ones that are always putting up religious shit on facebook never reply. When it's a non-religious figure doing these things they are all up in arms over it. It is a strange phenomenon.
