Zero. Catholics did not ignore accusations for the sake of a “political agenda”. Can you show they did? If accusations were ignored, they were ignored for reasons of moral lapses, or simply the abandonment of common sense, not for political agendas.

Also, Archbishop Pius may or may not have committed adultery (he apparently denies it), but it is clear that these charges have ONLY COME UP NOW because of Mugabe’s political agenda.

However, in an interview on state television, Archbishop Ncube said, "We all have weaknesses. That's why when we pray we always ask God for forgiveness.”

Pretty weak denial.
