Where the statues of limitations has not been met those who are accused should be charged and brought to justice by the civil as well as church authorities. Where the statue of limitations does apply those priests should be defrocked. Which I believe is the standard response these days. I agree completely with your proposal, but I'm not convinced this is the direction the Catholic Church is taking (see my post #24 re Father Robert Whipkey). I had hoped that Archbishop Chaput would have taken a stand re Whipkey, but it appears he's stalling for time.

I think Archbishop Chaput will do the right thing. He is a strong defender of Christian morality.

Over $660 million paid out by the L.A. Archdiocese in one day last year alone.
Six hundred and sixty million dollars in one day.
Any parent who sends his child to a Catholic school had better keep bodyguards on retainer.

Sorry, lastchance. I intended to ping xzins instead of you, but maybe the ping is of more use for you.
