But who do you think is responsible for this gag order on criminal prosecutions?
It's the Roman Catholic church, the Vatican, the priestly class and plenty of laymen who prefer to cough up the congregations' hard-earned cash than admit wrong-doing and prosecute their own.
If Church policy was to obstruct justice, impede criminal prosecutions of perpetrators, and steer things toward lawsuits, civil settlements, and bankrupting dioceses, then Church policy was abysmally wrong.
And the people who carried out the abuse of children, and their protectors and enablers, were doing something unequivocally damnable. If they do not repent from the heart, they will go to hell.
I think this is my last comment. Except to repeat what I said before: I support equal justice under law.
