Priest Chased Boy He'd Molested Down the Street in His Underwear

No, the headline of this post is not a joke.  It's based on a real news story about an Oregon priest who molested a 12 year old boy and then chased the boy down the street wearing only his underwear when the boy managed to escape.  So what id the Catholic Diocese doing with Fr. Angel Armando Perez?  Paying for his criminal defense, of course.  The episode provides a concise testimony to the utter moral bankruptcy of the Catholic Church hierarchy which is obsessed with all things sexual, carrying out a full blow jihad against and yet continues to protect predator priests.  I suspect that from the diocese's perspective, Perez's biggest sin was getting caught.  Here are story highlights:   

An Oregon priest has apologized and said he was drunk when he was caught on the street in his underwear trying to chase down a 12-year-old boy he had just molested.  The Archdiocese of Portland has said it will pay for the priest’s criminal defense, even though it was the first in the nation to declare bankruptcy in 2004, just hours before two civil trials on sex abuse allegations were to begin.

Woodburn resident James Curths told Oregon Live that shortly after midnight on Aug. 13, an out-of-breath boy ran toward him, begging for help eluding a man who was chasing him. Moments later, the Rev. Angel Armando Perez appeared, wearing only his underwear.

Curths and his sister-in-law drove the boy to his relatives’ home.  The boy gave police a detailed account of the alleged abuse and Perez was arrested later the same day.  Perez faces charges of first-degree sexual abuse, abuse of a child in the display of sexually explicit conduct, furnishing alcohol to a minor and driving under the influence of intoxicants.

Normal, well adjusted gays marrying under the CIVIL laws is a threat to western civilization according to Pope Benedict XVI, but this kind of behavior is OK as long as the public and media don't learn about it?
