Bernando Álvarez said that there are 13 year olds who are wanting to be abused, and 'if you are careless they will provoke you'
There is outrage in parts of Spanish society following declarations made over Christmas from the Bishop of Tenerife, Bernardo Álvarez.

His comments were that there are youngsters who want to be abused, and he
compared that abuse to homosexuality, describing them both as prejudicial to society. He said that on occasions the abuse happened because the there are children who consent to it.
`There are 13 year old adolescents who are under age and who are perfectly in agreement with, and what's more wanting it, and if you are careless they will even provoke you', he said.

Regarding homosexuals, the Bishop said that homosexuality was something
prejudicial to the people and to society, and that we would pay the consequences in the long term.
The Bishop claimed that both abuse of children and homosexuality would lead to future problems in society `as has occurred in other civilisations'.
The statements were made by the Bishop to his flock on Christmas Eve, in an
interview given to the La Opinión de Tenerife local newspaper.
A later statement from the Bishop's residence on Tenerife explained that the Bishop did not intend to imply that `an event as condemnable as the abuse of youngsters' could be justified.

The Triángulo Canarias Foundation for the Social Equality of Gays and Lesbians commented that the Bishop's statements on homosexuality were inadmissible, as were comments he made considering being gay an illness.

The further down the rabbit hole one goes, the worse it gets! Imagine blaming minor children for their abuse! This is sickening and so far beyond despicable I have no words for it.

And I hate to hear of the efforts (often reported on the news) of lay people saying/doing/
proposing various things to try to shore up this vile institution, as if it were worth saving. Blind sheep!

Surely this will reach critical mass before too long and the whole mess will come tumbling down!
