PC(USA) Faces Lawsuit Over Sexual Abuse on Mission Field
A victim of sexual abuse filed a lawsuit on Monday against the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A).
Sean Coppedge claims the denomination failed to protect him and other children during their stay at a boarding house in Congo, where his parents were serving as missionaries."
On the night I was sexually abused I immediately informed the Presbyterian authorities, but little was done, even though they knew the perpetrator had abused at least one other person prior to me," Coppedge said of his 1988 experience on Monday, according to The Courier-Journal.

He also maintains in his suit that the PC(USA) should have been aware of the vulnerability of mission children to sexual abuse as it had received reports even before he became a victim.
The obvious lesson here is that, while Catlicks may have perfected boy-rape, it certainly doesn't mean any of the other false Christian cults don't systemically foster the same abominations.
However, it's worth noting that this was already well known in certain circles.
“It would be incorrect to call it a Catholic problem,” said Church Mutual’s risk control manager, Rick Schaber. “We do not see one denomination above another. It’s equal. It’s also equal among large metropolitan churches and small rural churches.”
The above quote comes from an article at the
Denver Post. The overarching point is not that Catholic abuse is insignificant. Rather, the problem is much more widespread than many seem to understand. I'm personally not surprised that
every false church... be it Catholic, Lutheran, Presbyterian, Anglican or any other heresy ...hides such abuse within its ranks. They are all hellbound and no manner of hideous perversion is beyond them.
As we all know,
only those that believe and follow the complete and inerrant Word of God (as only found in the King James Version of 1611) are True Christians™ bound for Heaven. By definition, no such perversions can exist in our Church.
