O'Riley vs Molestation in the Catholic Church

  Tonight, Fox Channel, Bill O'Riley made an indicting statement regarding the culpability and responsibility of the Roam Catholic Church in moving Priests around to new Parrishes without disclosing their history of molestation. Riley is a Roman Catholic, and holds to his faith, but felt freedom to speak out against his Church. His guest, Ray Flynn, US Ambassador to the Vatican is also a Roman Catholic, and Mr. Flynn, while hopeful and appreciative that the Chruch will move forward, shared sympathies with O'Riley. Again, another Catholic who feels free to criticize his own religion.

  What will JWs say when they eventually see NBC Dateline show regarding how JW peodphiles have been shielded by Watchtower policy? Will they too speak with a free conscience, openly criticizing their own religion? Or will they feel constrained to say nothing, or worse yet, live in denial and act as though the story is false, promoted by apostates?

  Following Bible principles, we will avoid trying to live - or demand others to live - by an extensive and rigid set of dos and don'ts that go beyond the teachings of the Bible. The Watchtower, 4-15-02, pg 22, pp 15

  once again adding another nail in the coffin of confirming that WT is indeed a High Control Group

  This is not the first time O'Reilly has had Ray Flynn on his show on the the same topic. You had to have seen the first show to understand his latest comments about pedophilia. Flynn came out fighting the first time and this time he gave an inch or two. This man is a devout Irish Catholic but he wasn't as outspoken as O'Reilly was, at least publicly.

  I have this gut feeling that this pedophilia issue with the Church is a set-up for the witnesses. Many are not aware of such 'sick' behaviour being taken so lightly. As I have said in another post it is negligent and irresponsible on their part not to attend to this wicked problem. Yes, there were outright 'wicked' conduct on the part of the Israelites but it was taken care of. Something was done about it, but what has the org. done with pedophilia? I can't understand how they thought this 'evil' practice would never surface. It's here now and we just have to wait for public reaction after Dateline airs it. Will the people act violently towards the witnesses? Haters of JW will. This issue is fire-power for them.
