Thank you for posting that. I am very hard on the Pope because I think he knew about and hid abuse in his former job with the Church.

But if it turns out that it looks like he did fall on the sword to rip the rug out from under the nightmare then I will have to praise him.

I will say again, this reminds me of The Franklin Cover Up.

And to repeat the words of the dead former CIA director:

“What you have to understand, John, is that sometimes there are forces and events too big, too powerful, with so much at stake for other people or institutions, that you cannot do anything about them, no matter how evil or wrong they are and no matter how dedicated or sincere you are or how much evidence you have. This is simply one of the hard facts of life you have to face.”

Maybe it takes a Pope resigning to clear the evil from the Church.

Btw, just as important and hard to control is the money laundering at the Vatican Bank.

unless of course the pope resigned under the same sorts of threats

I think the forty years of legalized abortion has contributed to the development of the predatory priest. So for the Church to upright itself completely, abortion must also end (see my tagline).

God Bless Pope Benedict, our cardinals, bishops, and priests.

P.S. I look forward to your "papal praise" should that time come. :)

The Pope was not clean enough to go after the gay mafia and it’s power structure in the Church. He was a part of the supervisory policy of cover up and denial power structure in the past.

However, I think he came to see just how evil that church policy was and how much damage it has done to the church and resigned so someone clean can come forward to take it on and get rid of it. I hope this is true. I pray the church can clean it out and reconnect with the holy spirit for a revival in Christ.

As this darkness has infilitrated the church and poisoned everyone around it. The worship of a pretend mary god has replaced the worship and powerful and redemptive spirit and mind of Jesus. I was raised as a Catholic, by the way. Like all normal Catholics, I want the church back from the dark side. We need it in the state of the modern evil world to be clean...a power of Christ.
