The World......China, coming to an end ?

is the whole world 'Irish Catholic' ?

It's not just Irish, but Catholics aren't the group that's pounding out kids like they can't stop.

And where do you get that information from when this is out in the news " Nearly 1,700 priests and other clergy members that the Roman Catholic Church considers credibly accused of child sexual abuse are living under the radar with little to no oversight from religious authorities or law enforcement "https://www.nbcnews.com/news/religion/nearly-1-700-priests-clergy-accused-sex-abuse-are-unsupervised-n1062396

Are you offended by my comment? That sexual abuse doesn't produce many children, BTW. I was raised Catholic, but I left that cult long ago. If you have heard the name Rembert Weakland, he was the local archbishop here and he was named in the complaints regarding the shifting around of priests who were guilty of this- oddly enough, parishoners who aren't clergy are called 'lay persons'. Coincidence? You decide.

Hell no, lock them all up. . You made a statement that was either in fun or not based on fact. I provided a fact. you noted, "Sexual abuse doesn't have to produce children" , BTW ( Sexual abuse is sexual behavior or a sexual act forced upon a woman, man or child without their consent). I don't need to decide anything. These so called priest and clergy members need to go to a real prison for what they did to children, female or male and let the male prison population handle them..

Agree, except for the last part "let the male prison population handle them..".

The Catholic Church clergy is raping and molesting children all over the world, and has done so for a very long time. This has been known by the Church and covered up all the time.

Here is something that I saw a couple of days ago with the youngest child only two years old:

Child abuse found in Portugal Catholic Church is 'tip of iceberg', commission says

At least 4,815 children were sexually abused by members of the Portuguese Catholic Church - mostly priests - over the past 70 years, the commission investigating the issue said in a report on Monday, adding the findings are the "tip of the iceberg".

>>>LISBON, Feb 13 (Reuters) - At least 4,815 children were sexually abused by members of the Portuguese Catholic Church - mostly priests - over the past 70 years, the commission investigating the issue said in a report on Monday, adding the findings are the "tip of the iceberg".

"(We want) to pay a sincere tribute to those who were abuse victims during their childhood and dared to give a voice to silence," said child psychiatrist Pedro Strecht, who headed the commission. "They are much more than a statistic."

Strecht said the 4,815 cases were the "absolute minimum" number of victims of sexual abuse by clergy members in Portugal since 1950. "These numbers are just the tip of the iceberg," he said.

Most perpetrators (77%) were priests and 57% of the victims were men, Strecht said, adding that they were abused in Catholic schools, churches, priests' homes, confessionals, among other locations.

The majority of the sexual abuses took place when the children were aged 10-14, with the youngest victim being just two-years-old. ...<<<

All these countries just keep on having kids, their not thinking about food, water, breathing, just have those kids.

Why does this remind me of the Monty Python : The Meaning of Life skit?

Thanks for mansplaining, but I don't need it.

Read the words and you'll find the meaning. They need to be fired into space for what they did, but that's not gonna happen until we get someone with a set in power, or the Pope relinquishes his power. Not only were boys abused, they had pregnant nuns.

The comment about Catholics not being the ones pounding OUT kids wasn't about abuse in the church, it was a comment about demographics and if you look, you'll find that many groups have slowed their growth. It's not racist, it's from several sources but to some, it's taken as racist. I'm just commenting about who's having kids in numbers that will perpetuate their particular group.

As I wrote, I left the RC church a long time ago because of the whispered claims, long history of sick acts and their power- this was before it became well-known that the pope aided the Nazis to the extent that's now known. Someone knew, but it goes along with other secrets- those who talk don't live long.

""The comment about Catholics not being the ones pounding OUT kids wasn't about abuse in the church, it was a comment about demographics ", then why didn't you say that.

We both it appears feel these abusers need to be punished.

I never mentioned clergy. Not sure why you reacted as if I had.

Punished is far too lenient for what they have done.

About 5 years ago, a former math teacher at the high school I attended was charged with sexual abuse and I know a bunch of the guys he used for his own sick BS. He was never tried because he hung himself in his garage. He always creeped me out and I never had him as a teacher.

While I was watching the news last night, the report about the aSShole who killed those people in Buffalo came on and the judge said that there's no place for him- I thought of a place for RC priests/other pedophiles AND mass-murderers. Put them on a deserted island together and let them fend for themselves. While we're at it, let's drop Putin in and let the problems take care of themselves.
