A top cardinal says the Roman Catholic faithful will not be swayed by "petty gossip" about child sex abuse allegations.

They just don't get it do they ............ :roll:

Unless they do react and sort their mess out it may well permanently damage the church. From a personal point of view may not be a bad thing.

As it stands today, I would happily see the Catholic church destroyed over this matter. I have absolutely no problem with people practising their religion, Catholicism or any other, but a worldwide organisation where child sex abuse is almost endemic and then goes on to cover this up at the highest level certainly shouldn't be tolerated in my view.

Speaking of which, just where are the police in all this? Worldwide :roll:
