No, sorry. I’m not the one who’s blind. Before 2001, abuse cases did not make it to the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith unless a violation of the confessional was involved, and Cardinal Ratzinger was the one who got that changed and streamlined the process. Before that, cases were dealt with at the diocesan level. Facts in this whole affair seem to be getting in the way of a good smear campaign. And the facts are out there, but it seems not salacious enough for general consumption as it diminishes the false claims pretty efficiently.

You asked about the requirement that victims wait 10 years after they reach 18 to go public with their complaints. I showed you where Ratzinger reiterated this policy.

Keep denying Rome has a problem and the problem will continue, destroying lives, family, communities and faiths.
