However, until the tumor of concealment is excised, I don't think we can have much confidence that the abuse has also stopped. I hope it has, and the newer policies about training and supervision are encouraging. But I hesitate to say that even that part of the scandal is over with any confidence.Gabriel Blanchardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17607504369762849930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5766538007498037282.post-3366776633138225152018-06-27T10:44:15.212-07:002018-06-27T10:44:15.212-07:00It seems to me that we should keep in mind that th...It seems to me that we should keep in mind that there are two aspects to the child abuse scandal. One is the actual abuse. The other is the cover-up. I believe that the actual abuse has been stopped — at least in the United States — to the extent possible in any institution as large as the Catholic Church. There remain cases of abuse which have been covered up. Apparently Cardinal McCarrick's is one of those. Clearly, those who knew for a fact what Card. McCarrick had done should have come forward long ago. Then there are those who heard rumors. Third (or fourth or fifth or more) party hearsay isn't enough, IMO, to require or justify a suspension-causing, ministry-ending report. IOW, the blameworthy ones are those who had personal knowledge of the facts and remained silent.<br /><br />When people say, "The scandal is still going on," we need to be clear about which aspect we are talking about and to correct any impression that long-ago abuse is part of current events.naturgesetzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15268507379933286863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5766538007498037282.post-13174780592869221092018-06-27T03:47:31.091-07:002018-06-27T03:47:31.091-07:00We are in the end times. satan is targeting the Ca...We are in the end times. satan is targeting the Catholic Church and the chosen people of God.
