The United Nations heavily criticized the Vatican on Wednesday for what it said was a systematic adoption of policies allowing priests to rape and sexually abuse tens of thousands of children.
The devastating report published by the U.N. Committee on the Rights of a Child said the Vatican must "immediately remove" all known or suspected child abusers within the clergy.
It said the Holy See had "systematically placed preservation of the reputation of the church and the alleged offender over the protection of child victims."
In response, the Vatican said in a statement published on its website that some points made in the report were an "attempt to interfere with Catholic Church teaching."
It will be interesting to see how Pope Francis spins this.
Interfere with Church Teaching? HOW THE HECK IS KIDDY-FIDDLIN' A TEACHING OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH?!
Vicarious Atonement, Transubutation, Purgatory, Seven Sacraments, Original Sin, Intercession via Mary & Saints, Angels, Liturgical Calender, The Holy Mass, etc. That's Catholic Doctrine. Molesting kids is not Catholic doctrine!
Are these guys seriously oblivious to what child-molesting IS and how serious it is? Child-rape?
WHAT IN THE NAME OF SAINT MICHAEL ON A POGO STICK IS WRONG WITH THESE PEOPLE?!!!
