just like regarding the holocaust - this guy has a gift for skirting the issue by raising smoke screens. was pius 12 responsible for a cover up or not? who cares. the institution created the man. even if b16 in his previous posts wasnt responsible for the cover up, even if he didnt personally move raping priests from one place to another, the church as an institution must be held responsible for what is not an isolated case. either he should say mea culpa in the name of the institution he represents, or else the victims should sue the vatican as an institution for what that institution governed.

Did any one check into the Pope's past I am sure there are a few skeletons in his closet, what does one expect when a person has to be celibate his whole life, this is not the first time such stories have come out. At least they should find someone their own age.

has a nasty habit of apologizing 50, 100, or 500 years too late, and only when their deep pockets are at risk. It has less and less appeal in a world where most are literate and rational, and it is time they be shut down as the criminal organization that it is.

concerning the X-tian corruption of the Jewish Scriptures? When will he apologize to the world for the Catholic Church - having deceived them for 2000 years? How Esau was searched out, how his hidden things were revealed! Obadiah 1:6 Edom; the nation which descended from Esau. In the rabbinic texts, Edom is often equated with Rome. http://www.outreachjudaism.org/questions.html LISTEN FOR FREE: How do Missionaries Paint Jesus into the Jewish Scriptures? This is a fascinating program where Rabbi Singer demonstrates how verses in the Hebrew Scriptures are manipulated, misquoted taken out of context, mistranslated, and even invented by overzealous missionaries in order to make Tanach appear as though it is speaking about Jesus. http://www.outreachjudaism.org/biblical.html

The construct of the Roman church has for 1500 years served a cynical purpose of power and control over it's adherents and those who were unfortunate to live in it's geo-political orbit. While individual Catholic priests and parishoners have done wonderful acts of humanity, the architecture of the Vatican has been a locus of crimes against peoples and cultures around the planet. For 1500 years this absolute power has manipulated through it's offices, governments and events to further it's control and wealth. It is said that power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely. This is an uncanny description of Vatican politics. In every era and every generation, the Vatican has impeded the flow of ideas and justice. At every juncture, the Vatican served it's own narrow purposes regardless of the evil it brought to those unfortunate to be on it's enemies list. The Inquisition alone was responsible for the appropriation of land and wealth for the Vatican's coffers, let alone the unbelievable toll in humanity that suffered at the expense of the greater ambitions of a global church with desires of world dominion. The rescent history of the Vatican and it's shrouded actions have led to the murder of millions while preserving it's power and property. The Vaticans handling of it's current issues of priestly rape and abuse of it's young parishoners is but the tip of an iceberg of the crimes the church has commited itself to hide. The chickens are coming home to roost for this bastion of absolute corruption on Earth. Peeling back the onion of the Roman Church will at some point reveal that the worst , most depraved aspects ot the Roman Empire under the Ceasars never died, it transformed it's identity into a new and more powerful construct as the Roman Catholic Church with the Vatican at it's rotten core. The telltale purple worn by the Popes is but a vestage of the quite expensive color that was a hallmark of the royal capes worn by all the Ceasars of ancient Rome. A leopard can never change it's spots!
