The catholic church has its failings, but in recent activities it is showing a willingness to be accountable for those failings. I wish more organizations would be so accountable.

I am not sure what you mean by this.
The Vatican and the Dioceses have only buckled under massive media and public pressure and made available abuse data to law enforcement. This is under duress and certainly it is hard to see proactive steps taken by the church to reveal and help prosecute sex offenders in the clergy.
The public pressure and outrage on the issue is entirely appropriate and the victims are true victims. The guilty should be aggressively punished.
I can't say more except that I believe th catholic church is not the only organization with skeletons. In the last few years there has been much more accountability.

The statement was made by a 79 year old priest who at the age of 72 was struck by a car and ended up with head injuries so severe that he was in a coma for a month. In recent months his physical heath and mental capabilities have been failing so badly that he has been in and out of hospital and the Church has relieved him of his pastoral responsiblities.
End of story. The guy clearly didn't realize what he was saying due to his diminished cognitive ability..
But carry on all you Catholic church bashers... don't let the facts get in the way of a good rant.
Seems well enough to host his own radio show and give interviews...

So a bump on the head turned the man into a pedo? More like he was unable to censor himself properly.
Maybe I missed something in my ######ed atheist thoughts...I could have sworn he was an ordained catholic priest.
just because a Priest, Minister, Reverend, Padre, Father, Rabbi, Maulvi, Imam, Brahma, Lama, etc of any religion has the title does not mean they speak on behalf of God.
There are plenty of wolves in sheeps clothing within all churches world wide. True Men of God do not act like that.

Oh yes I forgot, as soon as these people do terrible things they are a plant from the devil.
