Priest Abuse and Clergy Sexual Abuse Information

haven't heard opinions of catholic church goers, only opinions from some abuse survivors

The abuse was bad enough but the inaction or half assed action by the church following the allegations is what caused me to leave the church. Abuse of children is not something that needs to be negotiated or discussed and if the church does not do what it can to protect children, I don't need to be in it. I call myself a Catholic but I also always add that I do not go to the Catholic church anymore. I love the religion, do not love the humans that are running it.
