The greatest failure of the church/Christian organizations when it
comes to responding to abuse is institutional self-protection. Too often Christian institutions have been willing to sacrifice the
individual human soul in exchange for the protection of their own
reputation. What makes such responses even more heinous is that they
are often justified in the name of "protecting the name of Christ." Such
a justification is nothing but a pious attempt at self-protection.
