Summary: Currently in Connecticut, someone must report childhood sexual abuse within 30 yrs of their 18th birthday (48 yrs old)... a new bill is being proposed to get rid of this limitation.
And guess who is opposing this new bill? You got it, the Catholic church.
Really? Really?
A letter was released from the bishops in opposition to the bill. Notable Quotes from said letter:
claiming the bill would put "all Church institutions, including your parish, at risk,"
wait, it gets better...
"legislation would undermine the mission of the Catholic Church in Connecticut, threatening our parishes, our schools, and our Catholic Charities,"
^^really? How the hell does a bill getting rid of the statute of limitations on child molestation undermine the mission of the Catholic Church.... did these guys basically just say that the mission of the catholic church is to protect molesting priests????
REALLY????
Of course i would like to read the entire letter now, althoug CNN doesnt provide a link to it. merely quotations.
