"Silver, you hinted at religion in your post and how it affects values on marriage. How do your religious values effect how a victim of sexual abuse is viewed? Homosexual behavior? Is it viewed as something dirty? Nasty? Would you be judged as being less than a man if you had sex with a man or allowed yourself to become a victim?"


Religion is important to me. As far as homosexuality it "isnt allowed" but Im pretty much celebate anyway. The act may be a sin but its the old addage (hate the sin love the sinner). I havent had relations in several years and am very comfortable being celebate. At the time of my abuse I was a Catholic but we werent going to church often. As a side note a very good friend of mine was molested by our priest. His family though were die-hard Catholics. He disappeared for about eight months to a local mental hospital (very sudden). I assume the church paid for it.

Anyway years later when my lawsuit came out and I ran into his dad again in the old neighborhood he was very angry I had hired that "church busting lawyer". My lawyer was gaining alot of fame nationally sueing the church over abuse cases. I became defensive and told him that Archbishop Roach (John Roach was archbishop of minneapolis) had passed these guys from church to church. He didnt believe it at all. His "faith" had blinded him to the truth.
