02/23/2004: "Child abuse abound"

This article talks about how it is difficult to compare clergy abuses in the Catholic Church and in protestant churches.

While this may be true that the Catholic Church is not alone in failing its people, I don't think it is a subject we should be spending a lot of time on.

We're not called by Christ to be mediocre. We're called to pick up our crosses and follow Him. Whether or not others are living up to that call is not relevant. We are not judged based on how we compare to our peers. We are judged by how we respond to Christs call.
