We cannot ignore a pope who has assisted in the aftermath at least of tying boys up in a rectory. Do you understand?

We are guilty of a serious sin of ommission if we ignore.

MG, I'm not going to accuse you of sin, but don't you think it's a omission for YOU not to verify this story before making accusations?

Reports of the incident(s) are sketchy. My understanding is that the priest was tried - by civil authorities - and sentenced to three months probation.

That seems pretty lenient for tying little boys up, a charge that could amount to kidnapping and a life sentence.

That the priest did SOMETHING he should not have done is farily certain. I'd like to know more about what really happened. Wouldn't you?
