Yes I saw that one. What kind of an idiot thought that was a good idea for Major League baseball?
Not an idiot, probably a Head Chef troll like @Hoping here. Predictably, Catholics get butt-hurt, which opens up the floodgates of reminding the Church of all the child raping felons who infiltrated her pastoral ranks for decades on end, plus the also predictable fumbling of all the non-child-rapist bishops who just weren't prepared for dealing with such rank violent crime.

It turned out to really tarnish the Church, and all it took was a little bait, setting a trap, and Bishop Barron happens to be the "tomato can" or patsy in this case. It blew up in the Church's face.

It was a troll masterpiece. And once again, as forever, the Church will learn from it and carry on.

I believe the perception of priests molesting grade-school children was crafted to protect liberal journalists. Never heard that one before have you?

The molesting almost always occurred with post-pubescent teenage boys. In other words, the priests were homosexuals, not pedophiles. The church had a homosexual problem, not a pedophile problem.

Now imagine you are a liberal journalist who would rather die than to ever use the 2 words "homosexual" and "problem" in the same sentence.

Solution: Report the accusation of a priest molesting an under 18 year old "child" leaving the impression that the child was prepubescent. The liberal journalist now gets to dodge a bullet by writing about the Church's pedophile problem instead of the Church's "homosexual problem."

I have heard that theory before, here. It doesn't pass muster though, because doesn't a 13- or 14- or 15-year old have a right against a grown man----especially a grown man in some sort of authority over the teenager, such as a step-father or uncle or their church's priest or pastor----propositioning them for sex? Of course they do. Whenever a grown man propositions a youth for sex, he has committed a first degree rights violation imo, and is also thereby a violent criminal. People who commit rights violations against children, even if they do it gently, are violent criminals. Because their victims are children! Minors, below the age of consent or reason or some other measure of mental maturity. They have rights, and certainly one of those rights is against being propositioned for sex by grownups.

Most people nowadays do not think "pedophile priests" means they rape infants and babies and toddlers, basically nobody thinks that. Everybody knows it means youths, pre-teens and post-pubescents, it doesn't mean literally "paedo," idk the last time it meant that to anybody. They're "pederasts" sure, but that distinction at this point is solving a problem of understanding that nobody's having. We know pedophiles are pederasts, but mainly what we mean is, they are rapists----first degree human rights violators.

I don't disagree with anything you said except I don’t recall the media doing a very good job of clarifying the victims age accurately. If you ask the average person how old they think the average victim of a pedophile priest was at the time of the molestation, most people will say 9 or 10.

The accurate age is much higher. But the goal was not accuracy. The goal was to prevent liberal journalists from committing suicide because they would have had to write the words "homosexual" and "problem" in the same sentence.

They weren't all homosexual offenses though Jefferson. I know those were the vast majority, but there were exceptions. The common denominator is therefore violent criminal rights violating rapists, and not homosexual or heterosexual or pansexual or whatever other sexual proclivity. It was the rape that was common to them all. These criminals targeted minors and ignored rights. And they got into the Church's ministerial priesthood, and they also got into marrying divorced mothers so they could rape her children, and they got into raping their nieces and nephews and they got into babysitting so they could rape kids that way. They're rapists, and they target kids. Scum of the Earth.

I don't doubt that some of them were pedophiles but the vast majority of them were either ephebophiles (attracted to high-school students) or hemophiles (attracted to junior high school students). I'm sure at least one of those priests was attracted to only males between roughly 16 to 20 years old. We're clearly talking about a homosexual in this case. And when some woke journalist reported on the case, do you think that journalist accurately described the priest as a homosexual?

I'm sure many of the priests were pedophiles. But many of them were homosexual ephebophiles. They were attracted to young males 16 to 20. Clearly homosexual but never reported as such. Not even one time.

And I don't doubt that Democratic party operatives who write journalism obfuscate the clear facts in these cases as well. They report the victims are males and the criminals are priests but they don't put two and two together and say this was homosexual rape.

Money, money, money, money.
The love of money is the root of all evil. (1 Tim 6:10)
And, as usual with the KJV, that's mistranslated.

For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil: which some reaching after have been led astray from the faith, and have pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
(1 Timothy 6:10 RV)

For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil, and in their eagerness to be rich some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many pains.
(1 Timothy 6:10 NRSV)

For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil, for which some have strayed from the faith in their greediness, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
(1 Timothy 6:10 NKJV)

Similarly ... very similarly, they'll never report as headline news when a Black man is the shooter in one of the hundreds of mass shootings which occur in America every year. Actually come to think of it, it's really that, you're not going to get your mass shooting as a headline news story unless you're not Black, and if you're suicidal. If you're Black and not suicidal, then you have zero chance----no one is ever going to hear about you and your mass shooting (which happened in Chicago or in Baltimore or in Washington DC or in St. Louis, etc.). Only non-Black, suicidal mass shooters get their name in lights here. Totally racist. Typical Democrats.
