Thank you for posting this. As a life-long Catholic who has been more than aware of this scourge in the Church, I am heartened to realize the extent of Pope Benedict’s handling of this issue. This letter is very powerful. It is another example of the truth that only truth can set us free.
What a deep mess. I think I read that a Cardinal from Britian resigned as he was exposed for having had sex with priests. The corruption runs deeps for all the compromises, excuses, rationalizations and cover ups. In time, everyone in power is smeared. : (
The whole essay is very powerful, but the best part is the warning that, if left undisturbed, in order to buy peace, that the church can be destroyed.
The size of the problem is much bigger than many faithful Catholics can even believe.
Since the Gates of Hell cannot prevail, the Holy Spirit will have to correct matters, and soon.
If it’s Peter Turkson, that will be a very powerful sign. And Amchurch will not continue as before.
It was easy to underestimate the work done by His Holiness to eradicate the "homomafia".
Benedict XVI is a great gift of the Providence, just like his honourable predecessor, John Paul II. Let us stand together on Benedict XVIs side, just as we would have stood on the side of Blessed John Paul the Great. They were such a wonderful, wise and courageous duet of apostles. They agreed and supported each other so much also on this matter
