Katie Couric speaks with Vatican analyst Father Thomas Williams about Pope Benedict XVI's tour of the United States and its significance for the embattled Catholic Church. (CBSNews.com)
@TriaMaxwell This is also the same church that stands for life not death, and has maintained the only solid tradition from the time when Jesus walked the earth to the present day. This is the church where men may falter, but the eternal Love of God prevails and makes all things new in the fullness of time.
@m3la5oplaz Do not thirst for Justice, because when Jesus comes again, everyone will be judged and many will be judged harshly, not many will go to heaven. While men in God's church falter, God fixes his church, just as God sent St. Catherine to fix the church when we had papal dispute in the 1300's, God will continue to fix His church in the present day, and we shall see it in the fullness of time.
@asimpleinstrument Because just following the comandments doesn't give these men ten percent of YOUR income.... This is the church that closed several nun nursing homes to pay off abuse cases committed by priests.
With all respect to Fr. Thomas, whom seems to be a good man, the sexual misbehave of many priest and the lack of authority of the cardinals and pope cannot be simplify with the so called phrase "we are humans". Politics in the vatican are anything but naive, there's more money and power that anyone can imagine. So please cut me some slack, they must to take civil responsibilities (and punishment) for they human acts, we are thirsty of justice!
TAKE YOUR CHILDREN AND RUN! Nothing is ever gonna change Catholics. Your relationship is with god and your faith will be stronger if you resist this evil.
and we should trust what this priest says simply cause he's a spokesman for the church?
please, what the pope & the church do is & always will be cloaked in secrecy & deceit. it does & always will protect itself over anyone or any group, no matter how evil.
the most recent cover ups followed up by revelations only back up my allegations, they don't resolve them.
let's have less comment from the church's deceitful p.r. dept. (this priest), & more from those seeking truth.

@m3la5oplaz When a priest rapes a child he's "just being human", when a person has a different faith, time to burn them at the stake.
