Pedastery cases shrank more than 90% between 1981 and 1994, before the press even got wind of the problem. The incidence rate was lower in 1994 than in the 1950s -- and that 1950s rate is probably only as low as it was because most of those pederasts are dead now, so there is no-one to accuse.
What you perceive of as inaction was apparently very effective subtlety. But there was nothing subtle about his condemnation of such abuses when he came to America in 1996 and publicly eviscerated the American episcopacy for tolerating abuse.

And nobody ever mentions how the protestant ministers abused the same amount of children and where it was not reported in the press as much as the RCC. Seems there was more media bias against the RCC where they tried to make it fail and go bankrupt with all these so-called gold diggers with this fake repressed memory BS. Well, it didn't work.
