Catholic Church's sex abuse scandal goes global

Ireland, meanwhile, continues to wrestle with the fallout from years of revelations about abusive priests. It wasn't until this week that Ireland's top Catholic Cardinal acknowledged the church's response to the abuse had been "hopelessly inadequate." A letter from the pope responding to the Irish abuse is expected Saturday.

I'm going to offend some of my fellow Catholics but I truly believe not all priests & nuns are called by God to be nuns & priests IF they should marry. No true Christian Catholic can look the other way on this terrible evil in the Church! To cover it up is to not belong to Christ.Who covers? Who hides in darkness & cloaks evil? Satan. We say we are the Oldest Church,the Mother Church.We hold First Century Documents.then we have NO EXCUSE! Catholics MUST NOT ALLOW THIS!

@SugarTomAppleRoger - watevah!

[SugarTomAppleRoger]

@libramadchen Fine. It is clear now that you are my enemy and the enemy of all Catholics.

[libramadchen]

@SugarTomAppleRoger - you can't even define "the other side" properly, - so I suggest you just go back to your corner and wallow in your self-pity & worry about how all these imaginary forces are suppressing, inhibiting or even going to mow your lawn...

Nut case.

@libramadchen I don't have "issues with the US". The US is bringing up these issues. This is a CNN report, and the abc is at the forefront of the attacks on Catholics. The abuse of children is an issue, but this has nothing to do with Catholics. Non Catholics also abuse children. You have made it plain that you hate Catholics. You are not alone there. I have been a Catholic all my life and have had to put up with hatred from the other side.

@SugarTomAppleRoger -

"whose interests this is?": - the Vatican, - trying to save it's arse.

"who is doing it"?: the pedo-priests, bishops and cardinals.

You obviously have some issues with the US, - but dude, like I said before, no one will take you seriously if you keep on avoiding the real problem here, - and that is: the ABUSE OF CHILDREN.
