Sex abuse scandal dominates meeting of U.S. Catholic bishops
Diogenes reviewed the above article.
I can answer that rhetorical question, Diogenes!
Since the bishops' conclusion is already in, and their "child protection" and "risk management" programs are built on it, why spend millions on another study to justify it? ¶ 6/17/2005 01:51:00 PM
Diogenes reviewed the above article.
Paul McHugh, a member of the National Review Board, hopes that the US bishops' conference will approve a $1 million investment in a new study of the causes of the sex-abuse scandal.
"If we don't do this study," he said, "some one else will, and they might bring different biases to it."
Different biases? And what biases do you want to have included in the study?
I can answer that rhetorical question, Diogenes!
As I've noted before, as a teacher in our parish's Christian Formation program, I attended the "Protecting God's Children" session of the Virtus program prepared by The National Catholic Risk Retention Group, Inc., the captive excess insurer owned primarily by dioceses. The materials included the following.
Myth: Most sexual abusers are homosexual.

Why spend millions?
1) BECAUSE THEY HAVE THE MONEY
2) BECAUSE THEY WANT TO DO CYA
3) BECAUSE THEY CANNOT ADMIT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, THAT MANY OF THEIR CLOSEST FRIENDS ARE THREATS TO YOUNG BOYS.
