Abuse of sexuality must be tackled

IF there is to be a genuine root-and-branch examination and clean-up done with regard to the entire area of child sex abuse, shouldn’t the 97% of perpetrators who are not clergy also be scrutinised?

Approximately 3% of the abuse was clerical abuse – a staggering 97% occurs with family, neighbours, strangers. Only a comprehensive approach to this scandal is good enough.

Included in this review must be the proliferation, especially in the past three to five years, of the most scandalous pornography available in virtually every small shop in the country.
