In Canada you have TV personalities and Catholic Apologists like Michael Coren claiming that the sex with boys scandels are not unique to the Catholic Church. Funny, when was the last time you heard of a Protestant minister being accused of this vile perversion with little boys. Almost every year in Canada, one hears of priests raping boys!!!


This stuff happens all the time in protestant churches, it is just not as newsworthy because there is not the official cover up and an overarching beaurocracy that can be blamed.
Kids attract paedophiles and protestant churches are just as likely to be targeted.
