“The history of the Protestant Reformation and the Council of Trent (1545-1563) record the rampant corruption of the bishops and priests. It is not hyperbole to speculate that sexually and financially the Church is equally corrupt today”.
A.W. Richard Sipe. A Benedictine monk for 18 years and now in private practice, writing in the book, “Sin Against the Innocents” in the chapter titled, The Crisis of Sexual Abuse, page 67.

As for the accused priest in the article it was a VICAR FOR PRIESTS and CANON LAWYER THAT SAID “A CREDIBLE ALLEGATION OF SEXUAL ABUSE” had been made against him. TWICE.

It sounds more like “John” just caught.

You didn't read the article, did you? Yes, two allegations were made, the second one AFTER the massive publicity on the first one. Did you read where the priest did not even KNOW the accuser? Does the priest get an attorney, a trial? Or have you already judged him guilty?
