To: Marchmain; ebb tide
Just saw more details here, at the Catholic Herald:

"19 page full report, headlined “Thou shalt not lie” and subtitled “The silence of the shepherds”, attacks the Pope’s handling of the abuse crisis and his attempted Church reforms."

Really, it's shameful, and yet I feel a grim satisfaction, even gratitude. I hope my reaction is a legitimate part of being one who "hungers and thirsts for justice", because I am convinced this unfaithful Pope needs to have his misdeeds exposed.

I hope it is for the best, this uncovering of evil at the highest spot in the Church.

I hope in the end he is repentant. Isn't that what I would want for myself?

Pray for Pope Francis; for his downfall and his salvation.

Your comments about Der Spiegel spot-on.

Exactly the sort of behavior discussed in Romans 12:19-21.
