Gloria.TV News on the 27th of June 2014
Axe to Grind: The Catholic youth minister Stephen May has written in the Arlington Advocate online about sexual abuses of minors pointing out that Catholic priests have statistically a very low incidence of cases. Nevertheless they are singled out by the media. Why? May gives the answer: Because the media want to blame their actions on celibacy or on the exclusion of women from the priesthood.
No Higher Risk: In his article May points out that the rates of insurance companies who offer sexual misconduct coverage are not different for Catholic dioceses than for any other religious denomination. This indicates that the insurance industry understands that Catholic priests do not present any higher risk than members of any other congregation, most of which do not enforce celibacy and do not accept only men.
The Church is Singled Out: May points out that although Catholic religious commit or committed only a very small number of the overall sexual abuse against minors, the media has chosen to place the spotlight on the Church. May answers: “More than any other modern organization, the Church has responded by becoming a beacon of light in an otherwise dark world that continues to abuse those least able to defend themselves.”
Prejudices: According to May many Americans live today with the misperception that the Catholic Church is still part of the problem of sex abuse against minors, when in actuality the Church is taking a leadership position, and becoming a role model in ensuring that children everywhere are safe from those who would harm them.
