But I agree, that the Church has to stop covering up and being defensive and just do a good job of protecting the children.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09600365870806305125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1589915379939405874.post-55036724421471531632010-04-16T01:55:04.489-04:002010-04-16T01:55:04.489-04:00For hundreds of years, Vatican Inc has relied on t...For hundreds of years, Vatican Inc has relied on the isolation of victims of pedophile priests to keep their crimes under the radar of public scrutiny. Thanks to the internet and cell phones, that isolation has vanished. The genie can't be stuffed back into the bottle. <br /><br />If Vatican Inc is ever to repair its tarnished image, it should stop shielding priests who prey on children and allow them be prosecuted by lay courts.
