You posted something about evangelicals supporting the Pope today.

Being gracious and hoping your pope would denounce a law in the UK that's being used to keep Christians from living their faith doesn't mean I won't criticize the leader of a church that keeps priests on after they've been convicted of sexually abusing people.

If you read the Pope’s remarks also, he does not support any kind of abuse at all.

Then why are there priests in your church that have been convicted of sexual abuse?

I don't believe anyone wants a witch hunt. We are talking about priests that have been convicted of a heinous crime.

Yes, I have a problem with this as well...though the Pope has said the church was not accountable as it should have been, until there is action within the church on these Priests these are simply empty words. They should no longer be in the Priesthood. Why the Church cannot see this is stunning.
