Our Pope has been named Time Magazine's Man of the Year, strong evidence the world recognizes that the Church is addressing its problems. Interestingly, the announcement came the same day that a Catholic Church child protection watchdog in Ireland published an audit of the Christian Brothers failure to effectively handle sexual abuse complaints against 375 brothers since 1975. That's right, 375 brothers, some of whom had multiple complaints. The Brothers ran schools under the authority of the Irish Government. The dichotomy, old vs new, self indulgent corrupt clergy vs service to man, can't be missed. Via Pappa....
