1962 Vatican document: Keep sex misconduct allegations secret
Friday, August 8, 2003 Posted: 9:33 AM EDT (1333 GMT)

NEW YORK (CNN) -- A 1962 Vatican document -- kept in secret archives -- instructed dioceses all over the world to keep sexual misconduct in the church under wraps.

But the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops said that using the document as a "smoking gun" to prove the existence of a "'ground plan' for 'covering up' the crime of sexual abuse of minors by clerics" is off-base. The church's guidance on the issue was revamped in 1983, the bishops said.

Issued on March 16, 1962, the document primarily refers to cases involving confession. It says, if a priest tries to solicit sex from someone who is trying to give their confession, then the allegation against the priest should be "pursued in a most secretive way ... under penalty of excommunication."

That applied to all parties involved.

Church leaders caution that the document had no bearing on civil or criminal law and was superseded by the 1983 Code of Canon Law, which "treats the sexual abuse of a minor (and solicitation of a penitent by confessor) as criminal behavior, which may be punished by dismissal from the clerical state."

  • have always usualy been practitioners of homosexual acts, and encouragers of those acts. While at the same time, they seek out as their highest sacrifice, the most innocent, the children.

    To speak of such "truths" will earn one the title of "bigot". Which is always the method of how the darkness lovers approach these matters. Instead of addressing the matter directly with something factual. They spew their hatred of the truth, in the form of "branding" and "labeling"

  • Ok the NEWS REPORT ON CBS was about only ONE TRUTH. The Vatican Documents to Cover Up Sexual Abuse.

    THATS THE FACTS. No bashing in this REPORT.

    So carefully Choose your words before you Brand or Label.

    Stay with the content of the Video Don't add something that's not thier.

  • Sex abuse were in all religius ad faiths but the media only talks about the catholic priests. It was a great movie on TV showing that so many jews priests and muslims who abus and go after little kids onthe internet who were caught onthe videos but because of the political correctnesses we are not allowed to show those child molesters on TV.When there is a wife beating of a none christian we are not supposed to give the names to protect the names of none christians!

  • Please check out the full presentation on my playlist called nuns and priest speak out.

  • this is a cult. plain and simple. transubstantiation my ass. are you kidding me?!

  • even if they are re enacting the blood and body. they are eating their savior, that is blasphemous in my opinion, I wouldn't eat ppl at all.

  • Bishop Lynn is indicted , bishop Vlazny is master of cover up . Time is right to go after the head of the snake . If we have a gutsy D.A. in Portland OR , dirty Vlazny might see jail time .

  • As a Catholic, the church is more evil than I even thought.

  • The pope knows his wrong, he hides behind people or whatever people can dig out of the ground, rather than hide behind god. God..or the whole religious background..is just to attract people's tenderness and support. Rather he be a president representing earth's government than representing OUR thing called religion, whether catholic or Christian.

  • Bullet proof containment = already proof the pope doesn't believe in god in his worship, or at least the god the bible points out to. If he was so holy and delved in his religious background, wouldn't he just call upon the power of god to protect him and not approve of any governmental protection?, I'm not even the pope and I seem to have even more faith in god than this so called leader does, I'm sorry I just ...I just don't under stand his ways ;l

  • They should be able to convict the higher ups with the R.I.C.O. LAW.

  • This whole pedophilia thing is a cover story for the Vaticans fascism. Thats why nothing ever happens to them. Nothing has changed with the church since the Spanish Inquisition. The American Inquisition is the Spanish Inquisition with the rule of law. We live in an imaginary state of grace. zsezse com

  • I was unable to come to any set beliefs on who is right.  All this showed me is what a contradictory book the bible is.

  • In 2001, while he was a cardinal, he issued a secret Vatican edict to Catholic bishops all over the world, instructing them to put the Church's interests ahead of child safety. The document recommended that rather than reporting sexual abuse to the relevant legal authorities, bishops should encourage the victim, witnesses and perpetrator not to talk about it. And, to keep victims quiet, it threatened that if they repeat the allegations they would be excommunicated.
