He said he knew at least two priests, who became paedophiles after themselves being abused as children.

“Now don’t tell me that those people are criminally responsible like somebody who chooses to do something like that. I don’t think you can really take the position and say that person deserves to be punished. He was himself damaged.”

They’re criminally responsible. I was raped as a child.

Maybe it’s not a choice to have feelings of pedophilia; it’s certainly a choice to act on them.
