Pope Francis calls for action on clerical sex abuse

[url=http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-22043312]Linky[/url] [quote]He told Bishop Gerhard Mueller, head of the Congregation for the Doctrine of Faith - the Vatican watchdog that deals with sex abuse cases - to ensure that perpetrators were punished. It was the Argentine Pope's first public statement on clerical sex abuse. A leading sex abuse survivors' group has responded with scepticism, saying "actions speak louder than words". When first elected, Benedict XVI promised to rid his Church of the "filth" of clerical sex abuse, but critics accused him of covering up abuse in the past and failing to protect children from paedophile priests. Victims of sex abuse by clergy had called for a strong response from the new pontiff to the crisis that has rocked the Church.[/quote]

  • Actions speak louder then words Pope. There is a massive amount of evidence incriminating numerous cardinals and the previous pope. Send the prosecutors loose and then I will believe this is nothing more then trying to have a nice PR message.
