What an Indictment!

There has been so much negative press regarding the Catholic Church that one is careful not to "pile it on"! However, Nicholas Kristof's column captures the poignancy of the Church's approach to clerical sex abuse and the excommunication of a sister who is a Vice-President of a hospital in Arizona who authorized an abortion to save the life of the mother. The bishop determined that he had no choice. When it came to priests' abusing victims, especially minors, bishops apparently were less clear about what was the appropriate action!!!
