Why is it that everyone on this board will attack a Bishop or an Order for sexual abuse allegations so long as that such Bishop or Religious order had a liberal streak in it.
The second allegations, and credible ones mind you, are produced against one of our own groups, instead of doing the right thing and condemning such abuse, everyone gets in a defensive position and tries to deny that such events ever occured. Well that's a whole load of balloney, because from what I've read I'd say that I'm 99.9% sure that something gravely wrong, sinful, and highly illegal was committed by many Priests of the SSJ against the boys who were attending that FSSP boarding school.
I'll have to reacquaint myself with the charges being leveled in this case, but I have been very consistent in defending the decisions of all bishops, however unorthodox they might be, regarding sexual abuse allegations. Allegations. Allegations. Allegations.
Bishop Timlin has acted properly in this case. The suspects have been removed. They have not been reassigned. Bishop Timlin has acted cautiously and prudently despite enormous pressure to drop the hammer on these guys. I know it's not chic these days, but I'm inclined to give him the benefit of the doubt.
I believe Sammy Sosa too.
