Bill Maher’s HBO show on May 31 featured a
discussion between the host and filmmaker John Waters on the subject of Pope
Francis and clergy sexual abuse. Waters, who is a homosexual and former drug
addict, addressed molesting priests, saying, “They’re not all
gay—they’re pedophiles. That’s different.” Maher replied, “They’re
not all pedophiles.” Waters answered, “Most are.”
So who’s right? Waters or Maher? Maher.
Researchers at the John Jay College of Criminal
Justice issued the two most authoritative studies on priestly sexual abuse;
most of the abuse took place between 1965 and 1985. They found that 81 percent
of the victims were male and that 78 percent were postpubescent. When adult men
have sex with adolescent males that is called homosexuality. As for
prepubescent victims, they accounted for 3.8 percent of the abuse. That’s
called pedophilia.
In short, there never was a pedophile problem
in the Catholic Church—most of the molestation was done by homosexuals. For
more detail on this subject see my book, The Truth about Clergy Sexual Abuse: Clarifying the Facts
and the Causes. As I have said many times, most gay
priests are not molesters but most of the molesters were gay.
The media, of course, as well as gay activists
and liberal Catholics, continue to lie about this issue. They mouth the refrain
issued by Waters, hoping to exculpate homosexuals. But blaming pedophiles for
homosexual-driven offenses is simply dishonest.
It’s worse than this. The fact is that some of
the most prominent gay leaders have been supportive of adults having sex with
minors, and some even justify man-boy rape. Moreover, while there are
heterosexual pedophiles as well, the only ones who have an organization
dedicated to pedophilia are gays. See our report on this issue.
June is Gay Pride Month. It’s time that gay leaders spoke to this issue with clarity. If everyone can’t agree that the sexual abuse of children is an abomination, we will never get rid of this problem.
