Pope accused of ignoring pleas to stop priest who molested 200 deaf boys

Is this surprising? He's wanting to sweep it under the rug. There are countless examples of this in many different organizations. Saving face has come back to bite him in the ass. There's also the possibility that he has raped kiddos too.

Y'see, this is why nobody likes Catholics. It's easier to point the finger at their bad deeds, and ignore our own.

You mean kinda like how these same priests pointed fingers and called people sinners while diddling little boys?

That's exactly what I said, right? Priests/Pope = Catholic.
Other religions don't give a honkin' hoot what the Pope says.

Yeah, but there's like 1 billion Catholics in the world.

Yea. I'm sure them not believing in birth control isn't to perpetuate their influence and increase the number of births in ignorant populations that follow their rules to the T? :P

That sounds remarkably like the southern half of our country. Without the intelligent conspiracy behind it though.
