Pedophilia In The Church

Certainly this topic involves a difficult in the moment that we want to express an opinion.  The pedophilia in the church currently has taken headlines on Chilean press because of the called ‘Karadima case’.

The ethic debate was opened by that case because were the most painful situation about sexual abuse that Catholic Church has must to face up as institution.

Is most difficult even to set an opinion about if molester cases are an exception or not. To me, molester cases are an exception which must to be raised and analyzed deeply. Catholic Church should to learn about that and must to ask herself about her mission in the world.

I neither believe in the Catholic God nor her doctrine, and I think persons can commit mistakes. Every human act occurs because of something. The deviation could obey to a mental disorder, to a weak concept about human relationships.

We can see, according to some approaches that the term ‘pedophilia’ has a range of definitions though the International Classification of Diseases defines pedophilia as a disorder of adult behavior in which there is a sexual for children of pre-pubertal or early pubertal age.

In that sense, I don’t want to justify the attitude but I think that molesters shouldn’t be consider like persons who acts in absolutely emptiness but some conditions operates as decisive factors to motivates these kind of behavior or disorder.   

We as a society should be on quest of that factors and we should to repudiate this kind of irregular practices on though social institutions. Pedophilia is finally a crime but solution is not the jail only.
