I pray God’s justice be done. And I am not a Pope Francis fan...

The Catholic Church has weathered through far worse.

It’s the truly faithful who define it, not merely its fallen leadership.

And who defines the truly faithful? RCs are not to be as evangelicals who ascertain the validity of church teaching, as well as who is faithful, based on their judgment, but they are to look to leadership to do so.

And when liberal proabortion, prohomosexual souls are manifestly considered members in life and in death, then that defines what canon law means. As when a Ted Kennedy is given a church funeral.

Such as?

I keep hearing that.

Cite some examples of *worse* than molestation and cover up of hundreds or thousands of kids by hundreds of priests over (known) decades and very likely centuries.
