[+/-] Stains on the pope's legacy

From Blog for America:

Over 11,000 children were sexually abused and close to $1 billion in settlement money has been paid-out but the Pope did not go much beyond decrying "the sins of some of our brothers". He never met with any victims, he never offered practical solutions to dealing with the problem, he never addressed the decades-long cover up of the abuse. He even rejected a "zero tolerance" policy calling for the immediate removal of molester-priests, concerned that it was too harsh.

Too harsh?! This is a man who wouldn't allow a priest to become a bishop unless they were unequivocally opposed to masturbation, premarital sex, and condoms. So, in his perversion pecking order, you had to be dead-set against "self-love" but when it came to buggering little kids, there was some wiggle room.
