This is going to be short hopefully. I got carried away, 865 words so starting again. ANY person who commits the unforgivable offense of molesting an innocent child, and any persons who are found to protect the offender be they two or twenty are equally as guilty. No matter if they belong to one of the wealthiest institutions on earth. Believe they are untouchable and hold total disregard for the laws of humanity. Entertain delusions of grandeur and have clearly lost their conscience. Like any other undesirable sex offender, put into jail, without protection, because they have now reduced themselves to the lowest of the low.
The police are entrusted to keep our towns and families safe. And all the while the criminals are at work deviously destroying little boys lives for their own selfish gratification.
To become ordained, marry God? and relinquish all normal human privileges, one more, important sacrifice needs to be made. Sounds brutal, but compulsory castration. Going through all the processes of becoming a priest does not change the natural function of the ever ready reproductive system. Surely this is the most effective, only effective option to protect children from becoming human receptacles and an object used by testosterone filled men. I know it will never happen because its inhumane. Which one is more inhumane?A conscious moral decision to remove what is no longer required, and will inevitably lead to some level of unacceptable acts.Or the life destroying betrayal and brutality of an innocent who has no choice.

Before someone else says it.
There are pedophiles in all organisations.
The bid difference though is what is done about it.
With most organisations they are reported to the Police.
In the case of pedophile priests they are transferred to another parish interstate or overseas and their whereabouts kept a secret.
Where they can re offend until caught and then transferred again.

Child sacrifice was practised in ancient times as offering to the Ammonite god Molech a worship of natural fertility which was forbidden by the laws of Israel. See Leviticus 18: 21; 20: 1 - 5; 1Kings 11: 7; 2 Kings 17 17; 21: 6; 27: 10; Jeremiah 32: 35; Ezekiel 16: 21.
http://forum.onlineopinion.com.au/thread.asp?discussion=2994&page=0
Tradition ascribed to Sanchuniathon stated that the Pheonicians sacrificed children.

the practice of Mlk occurs in Ugarit texts and has been ascribed by Gordon as a kind of child sacrifice (C H Gordon, Ugaritic Handbook 1947 edit page 246)

jodelie,

What about all the married priests in the Catholic Church?

Your solution is going to be a bit hard (no pun intended) on their wives.

jodelie,
Do not associate "the faith" of a religion with the criminal behaviour of the person in a religion. To attack a faith / religion actually attack the principles taught or the behaviour promoted by the religion. If the religion actually teaches molestation of children then attack that. Attack the criminality of the person not living in denial of his / her passions as taught by the religion.

I am not Catholic but if one takes a vow they must accept the responsibility of that vow. I actually believe celibacy must be seriously questioned as a life for young men from Catholic university. The Christian faith actually teaches if one cannot be self controlled he / she is to marry.

if you are really concerned about child molestation go to the Aboriginal communities and protest. Also protest against the porn industry that feeds such abhorrent acts. Otherwise if its just the Catholic church you hate come out and say it.

"I know it will never happen because its inhumane. Which one is more inhumane?" Yes why don't we ask the offenders. When convicted of pedophile behaviour or rape we should ask them which they would prefer - 25 years in jail or a simple operation after which the desire would vanish and they could be released.
Farmers routinely perform this operation to reduce the type of bahaviour encouraged by too much testosterone etc. on all their different types of livestock. We as humans are only the top of the animal chain, but there is absolutely no reason why we should not offer a (free) cure to sexual offenders. It is not inhumane if it is voluntary.
Quite apart from that I believe it would save the taxpayer, i.e. all of us, around $100,000 a year for each offender as well as changing the lives of what must really be very unhappy people

I really picked the wrong subject to chat about didnt I?
As religion was the subject of the day, I looked up a few sites to try and become better informed, so as not to put my foot in it and offend anyone. My hubby, myself and several family members have all been victims of sexual abuse. Many years ago of course. One repeat offender was a brother at a boys school. The other mongrels were various family friends. Pedophilia has been around forever, and it remains an abhorrent crime. Sadly the Catholic church, for one institution has a very high percentage of offenders, going back many years. The expected moral action would be reporting the crime. Sadly again, to save the reputation of the most worshiped, highly regarded Religion, dishonest activities became necessary, followed by no doubt immense guilt.
The high percentage of offenses, is due to an all male habitation. These men, many young, believed they had found their calling in life, and made the monumental life change. The (maybe counseling) that they would have gone through had to have been extensive. Vows, including celibacy, being taken with absolute faith in their moral strength and dedication.
Sadly as is natures intention, the male reproduction system is sooner or later going to interfere despite..anything. Urges vary, Im not a man but I am well aware of the function. The result leading to moral decline then criminal acts, for many over many years.
The only solution I could think of to control the natural urges was the brutal castration. Makes sense, but nooo. Thank you Josephus, married men, perfect! Women in the Vatican for the greater good. Staying away from that one:)

It is only the Religious organisations that transfer offenders away to evade prosecution.

Jodelie,

You make some monumental assumptions:
"The police are entrusted to keep our towns and families safe..... .
Sounds brutal, but compulsory castration...."

There are two assumptions that are wrong, it is not the job of the police to protect society although many of them do and it is also erroneous to think that castration necessarily stops penile penetration, it doesn't.

Jodelie, I doubt castration would be enough to stop any paedophile reoffending, as I think it is more of a mental defect than physical.
Sending them to jail for life is safest.

Blaming celibacy is no use either, given that married ministers of other religions and organisations have been caught for paedophilia, not to mention all the poxy paedophiles living supposedly normal lives out in the community.

Is Mise, am I missing something here?
When and where do Catholic priests get married?
I always thought they weren't allowed to marry?

http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2014/01/15/imagine-if-you-found-a-sex-ed-poster-asking-this-provocative-question-at-your-daughters-middle-school/

A poster asking some Kansas middle school students a sexually provocative question has at least one parent up in arms.

“How do people express their sexual feelings,” the poster asks, before listing “touching each other’s genitals,” “anal sex” and “vaginal intercourse,” among other things.

After seeing the material posted at Hocker Grove Middle School in Shawnee, Kan., Mark Ellis thought it was likely posted by pranksters, WDAF-TV reported. He couldn’t believe school officials would actually expose his 13-year-old daughter to such a question.

Suse,

Priests cannot marry within the Church but married men may become priests, this is common in the Eastern Rites of Catholicism but not in the Roman Rite.

Recently a number of former priests of the Anglican Communion have become Roman Rite priests and those that were married remained married.

My one time Commanding Officer Lt. Col. V E Dowdy became the first married Roman Rite man to be ordained a priest in Australia.

He later officiated at his daughters wedding and, in the fullness of time, baptized his own grandchild.

Is Mise Clearly my knowledge is limited but I am keen to ask questions and make suggestions and become more informed and have a better understanding of many subjects. So of course welcome correction and constructive criticism when called for.
The police are not employed to protect the public? I know many abuse their position but still. And i did believe the main purpose of castration was to stop the ability to reproduce, reduce testosterone and largely decrease libido. Thinking this my put a stop to the start of the sexual abuse problem among those being ordained to priesthood.

Jodelie, are you suggesting they castrate all Catholic priests just in case they might abuse children, or after they have been convicted?

Why just the priests, why not all paedophiles?
It has already been well established that celibacy does not 'cause' paedophilia, so why concentrate on Catholic priests and other clergy?

AZ Governor Uses ‘State Of State’ Address To Get Rid Of Child Protective Services
. http://www.addictinginfo.org/2014/01/14/jan-brewer-dissolves-cps/

With the scandal of over 6000 uninvestigated child abuse cases hanging over her head, Arizona Governor Jan Brewer dissolved Child Protective Services (CPS) by executive order. She made the unexpected announcement on Monday during her State of the State address to the legislature. Child advocacy groups and politically progressive groups have been calling on her to take action over the scandal. They especially wanted her to dismiss the Department of Economic Security director, Clarence Carter. Carter, who was appointed to his position by Brewer, was responsible for the oversight of CPS. He still has not been fired but, if Brewer has her way, CPS itself will disappear right out from under him.

Many of you might find this interesting.

From the Washington Post.

"Sexual abuse of minors is not the province of the Catholic Church alone. About 4 percent of priests committed an act of sexual abuse on a minor between 1950 and 2002, according to a study being conducted by John Jay College of Criminal Justice in New York. That is roughly consistent with data on many similar professions.

An extensive 2007 investigation by the Associated Press showed that sexual abuse of children in U.S. schools was "widespread," and most of it was never reported or punished. And in Portland, Ore., last week, a jury reached a $1.4 million verdict against the Boy Scouts of America in a trial that showed that since the 1920s, Scouts officials kept "perversion files" on suspected abusers but kept them secret.

"We don't see the Catholic Church as a hotbed of this or a place that has a bigger problem than anyone else," Ernie Allen, president of the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, told Newsweek. "I can tell you without hesitation that we have seen cases in many religious settings, from traveling evangelists to mainstream ministers to rabbis and others.

Part of the issue is that the Catholic Church is so tightly organized and keeps such meticulous records -- many of which have come to light voluntarily or through court orders -- that it can yield a fairly reliable portrait of its personnel and abuse over the decades. Other institutions, and most other religions, are more decentralized and harder to analyze or prosecute."

After a little research. Yes married men have become ordained. Unmarried ordained catholic priests may not marry but may petition to be released from his vow of celibacy to marry. Relinquishing many of his duties.The vow of celibacy is in place for the subject to 'devote themselves to the church and not to women'. Which, as I read, 'firstly includes the promise of chastity, to abstain from all sexual expression'. Chastity also is said to be very difficult (including self gratification) for men particularly. Some priests were found to have broken a small part of their vow (self grat..) and had moved to further sexual acts including abuse of minors. Some I might boldly suggest, are victims of circumstance, in hindsight may never have entered the clergy, horrified at the thought that they may offend in this way. Still a crime against another human has been committed. Penalty for violation of the vow is removal from the clergy,further punishment should be administered by the law, as with any other sexual offender.
Still on the strength of their belief and conviction to God, unless married of course, should volunteer for medical intervention of the removal or at least the reduction of sexual urges. Humane castration.
Nip it in the bud, so to speak.
As for convicted pedophiles, Many of whom have deep seeded psychological problems, their behaviour has become a disease of the mind and controls them. Something that may never be exorcised and probably one of the most difficult class of offenders to make the punish fit the crime. In unprotected custody they would no doubt be dealt with. Castration, even the age old treatment of shock therapy, other than that, I have to do some more study.
