I was going to say the Pope is out of touch, but then realised that too, was dangerous ground as his practitioners have been doing a lot of that over the millenia.

I feel REALLY sad for all the poor souls who didn't report it, because 'who would believe them over the word of a 'man of the cloth'?

I still think the thrust of his statement (sorry) was very misplaced.

AKENATON - 'Kneejerk reactions' - damn right, it would appear that had they happened sooner, this lot of charlatans et al wouldn't have got away with what they did. That's predation of the worst kind, at least the other paedophiles can't hide behind an understanding bishop.

They're the ones that should be stoned, not some poor woman in Iran/Afghanistan or thereabouts.
