The Vatican has attacked the media over charges that
the Pope failed to act against a US priest accused of abusing
up to 200 deaf boys two decades ago.
-
The latest allegations stem from the US, after it emerged
that Archbishops had complained in 1996 about a priest, Fr Lawrence
Murphy. Their complaints went to a Vatican office led by the future
Pope Benedict XVI, but apparently received no response.
...
So, let me get this straight. Without saying anything else but
"conspiracy!" or "it is not truth", i.e. without giving any rational
explanation, these Stone Age bastards are trying to counter a very
simple equation: guy complains then Ratzinger does nothing.
No brainer, right?

The Catholic Church has perfected this debating technique to an art form.
Why rock spiders?
Ireland, the US and Germany - now it seems Italy itself might have its own wave of revelations of paedophilia and attempts by the Vatican to cover them up. Hundreds of cases are ready to take to court (and, if the pattern of the other countries above is followed, many, many more may emerge after the initial surge). We can probably leave aside as singularly potty the suggestion by Cardinal Jose Saraiva Martins that the conspiracy here is a 'well-organised plan, with a clear aim' against the Catholic church.
But God moves in mysterious ways. Before he became Pope, Ratzinger predicted that the Catholic church would be better off in its decrepitude and senility... sorry, would be better off smaller and less powerful geoploitically but doctrinally sound to the point of blind loyalty and asceticism. The inability of the Vatican to accept an iota of responsibility for shuffling priests between dioscese when they were caught molesting children ought to sort out the true believers from the fellow-travellers.
Revelation 17:1-6 (New International Version)
1One of the seven angels who had the seven bowls came and said to
me, "Come, I will show you the punishment of the great prostitute, who
sits on many waters.
2With her the kings of the earth committed adultery
and the inhabitants of the earth were intoxicated with the wine of her
adulteries."
3Then the angel carried me away in the Spirit into a desert. There I
saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast that was covered with blasphemous
names and had seven heads and ten horns. 4The woman was dressed in
purple and scarlet, and was glittering with gold, precious stones and pearls.
She held a golden cup in her hand, filled with abominable things and the
filth of her adulteries.
5 This title was written on her forehead:
MYSTERY
BABYLON THE GREAT
THE MOTHER OF PROSTITUTES
AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.
6 I saw that the woman was drunk with the blood of the saints, the blood
of those who bore testimony to Jesus.

As a school teacher he admittedly helped along a pediphile have a sexual relationship with a 15 year old student. He advised the student to "wear a condom" and let things continue.
