the horror of it -beyond the horror of the crime---is that the vast majority of the people in authority--who are innocent--get tarred with the same brush. So evil not only harms the children and their families but also harms the institutions. Religion haters(not all) glom onto these incodents in order to bash entire churches.And its usually the catholic church because they are the big kid on the block.
Its a nightmare additionally because now anyone accused of pedophilia is considered guilty.
If only it were that simple, many people join these organisations before they become paedophiles, it's not just previously abused people who become paedophiles nor are you destined to become one if you have been.
what are u talking about??? my statement is absolutely true. pedos go where they have access to kids. that is not arguable.
and where the hell did i talk about previously abused people?? i never mentioned that.
Wooooh there! keep ya Bermuda shorts on beach boy.
So everyone accused of this was already a paedophile and that was why they went into this? thats a bit of a stretch.
I simply said that your contention being that if authorities
'screen its people thoroughly' it would somehow reduce the numbers of paedophiles with access to children was too simple.
Screening only works if there is anything to find which is why I said not everyone is a paedophile to begin with, I never said that they
don't get jobs or positions simply to gain access to children, some clearly do. I don't know what the screening processes are like in the US but here they are pretty strict with a 'full criminal records check' from the CRB.
Granted you never said anything about paedophiles being victims, I was confusing that with another thread on this subject where some people believe that paedophiles have been victims themselves in earlier life.
Excuse me for getting confused, why don't ya.
