    Baltimore’s Catholic Church sexually abused at least 600 children over 60 years, Maryland AG says

    "Young people in some parishes were preyed upon by multiple abusers over decades," the state's top prosecutor said after a 4-year investigation.

    But let’s worry about drag shows and rainbows. Is DeSantis going to start banning Catholic Churches in FL?

    It’s amazing how what’s most important to the GOP: religion and guns are most damaging to children.

    Food industry is the biggest danger.

    I agree, huge danger. But I would put the food industry behind social media now.

    at this point, if u leave your child alone with any priest or Church official, u are guilty of neglect and child endangerment

    might as well be handing your kid to Jeffrey Epstein

    Persons of faith are more dangerous to children than the gays or trans

    If you want to go that route, you better ban Mosques, Synagogues and Protestant church's because the rate of abuse is the same and in some cases higher than in the Catholic church.

    I recall there was a recent situation with the Southern Baptist church that turned up a lot of abuse.

    If heaven is filled with religious people, I’d rather go to hell.

    I don’t know about that but

    add secrecy, unaccountability, and protection for sexual predators and it’s like a secret pedo club

    I'd say guns and drugs are the biggest danger to American children. And social media. And sugar.
