Pedophilia and the Myopic Press

The Jurassic Press continues to beat on the Catholic Church and the Pope for it's actions regarding pedophilia. I wrote about the latest dust up fabricated by the MSM here. The Wind Rose Hotel posted two informative an insightful articles here and here. Lots of attacks on the Church, many of which are justified, but the attacks on the Pope are not. What drives it is the Main Stream Media's (MSM) secularist anti-Christian bigotry. It's still PC to attack Christians and rednecks, NASCAR enthusiasts, etc.

Meanwhile, they for the most part ignore the huge cultural and legal problems of pedophilia, especially with Liberal judges and in the public schools. When I had cable TV, nearly every week I watched Bill O'Reilly send a producer out to confront a judge that had let a pedophile free, often ones that were serial offenders, had been convicted several times, and had even murdered their victims. I remember one case that that a pedophile was released after five years that had raped and murdered a child. The Jurassic Press should be in as much of an outrage about that and similar cases as they are with the really bad things that happened in the Catholic Church.

The huge main story is the pedophilia that goes on in our schools. It effects far more children than the Church. Charol Shakeshaft of Hoftra University: “Think the Catholic Church has a problem?” “The physical sexual abuse of students in schools is likely more than 100 times the abuse by priests.” Do we see a hundred more times the stories about the problem of pedophilia in the public education system?

In 2006 a federal study reported that 422,000 California public school students would be victims of sexual misconduct by educators before they got out of school. Compare that with 143,000 Catholic school students total in the state. More public school children will be victims than there are Catholic school students. How often are those stories covered? Not so much. Full article here.

A favorite occupation of pedophiles is school teacher. A NY Times article discusses chat rooms and meetings for pedophiles where they discuss how to meet children and what their experiences have been. From that article, Dallas child psychologist Richard Dangel: “Only about 4% of offenders get busted.” “The other 96% don’t.” If you have a child, knowing that, how safe is he\she in school?

National Victim Center, in 1992, found that about 29 percent of all forcible rapes in America were against children under age 11. Now we're looking at 1 in 4 girls and 1 in 7 boys being victims. And the Catholic Church is the problem? A side note here, that the Boy Scouts of America identified the problem and keep homosexual men, a main source of the problem, from being leaders in the organization to protect those children. Look at the grief they get from the Jurassic Press and other Secularists.

Added to the anti-Christian bigotry of the Jurassic Press, is their endorsement of the sexualization of children. They defend the 'Man-Boy Love Association', Calvin Klein ads with underage models exhibiting uber-sexuality, the little girls' "beauty pageants"... the kind Jon Benet Ramsey was part of, the media defense of Roman Polanski, and even an article in USA Today “Sex Between Adults and Children” that came to the conclusion that it was a 'gray area'.

The Church, both Protestant and Catholic, make it quite clear this is intolerable behavior. The myopic secular bigots in the Jurassic Press say outside the Church, it's not so much a bad thing. It goes back to the idea that if you profess a belief and value system, and violate it, then the attack is full on. If you have no belief's or values that you profess you try and live up to, you're given a pass.

No pass here for the Secularists that that turn a blind eye to this rampant sexualization of children, and the rampant sexual abuse of children in public schools.
