I suppose that we will not likely agree concerning the issue of Cardinal Law and the accuracy of the charges against him. I am no great supporter of him, but I am and have been for many years a staunch critic of that rag known as the Boston Globe. The persons who manage that enterprise clearly are agenda driven and it makes perfect sense that they would use their position to undermine ANYTHING that Law and the archdiocese would attempt to accomplish.

The Globe resurrected a ten year old story concerning Priest Geoghan a few years ago. They apparently got the goods on a few other deviants and then they launched their unrelenting assault on the one institution in this area that actually provided decent education to ordinary folks at an economical price.

When the scandal broke open in force people began to come out of the woodwork looking for a piece of the action that the church was going to pay to the victims. Are you seriously suggesting that thousands of children were molested by a few perverts and it never came out over forty or so years until the Globe began blaring the few allegations of it on their front page for weeks straight?

The Globe is one of the most radical left wing newspapers that this nation has ever seen. They are beginning to pay a real price for their iniquities with a declining circulation which among other things is being driven by a backlash for their very unpopular positions on numerous social issues.

The Globe's attacks on Cardinal law and the church have resulted in the closing of many schools and entire parishes just in this area alone. I know many people living in Boston who have children of school age. I do not know anyone who sends their children to the Boston Public Schools. The Globe along with social engineers have destroyed the system with the help of federal interlopers such as the late Judge Garrity.

The Boston Globe is a great threat to the Catholic Church, and to the nation itself in my opinion. They won a big battle this time, and they are working on a few other matters.

There were than a "few" perverts. There were over 4,000.

And, no, the extent of the problem did not emerge until The Globe blew the corruption in Boston wide open.

It's ok to dislike The Globe. But it did great work in the case of clerical sexual abuse.

Ya know, I really haven't read anything the Globe has written, and I'm relatively uneducated as to what really went on in the Catholic Church regarding anything pedophilia related. The one thing that occurs to me after reading a great number of these posts is that some don't realize that even an enemy of yours coming to you with something that could help you clean up an internal mess shouldn't be ignored. Oftentimes it takes someone else scrutinizing you (especially someone who doesn't care for you) to point out things you really need to change. Egocentrism is a dangerous thing.
