as usual i'm not really sure what you're trying to say since you post in some sort of weird private language that comes off as mumbly gibberish and i can only guess at the ideas lurking underneath.

i think there might be a fallacy in your logic but i'm not actually sure since you seem to be talking out of both sides of your mouth simultaneously.

are homosexual's more likely to be pedophiles than heterosexuals? if you believe that, what's the evidence that led you to that conclusion?

I would say that homosexuals and heterosexuals are equally likely to be pedophiles. That said because there are far more heteros in the country/world, incidents involving them would be far greater, in proportion to their numbers. I just think the pedophile who has victimized both genders is far more rare than those that have targeted a single gender.

What's happened in the Catholic church is unique and needs to be treated as such. Those same bishops and pastors who gladly accepted money every Sunday and every other chance they got while either participating, covering up or looking the other way need to pay back to the victims EVERYTHING they collected.
