Today the New York Times unearthed yet another pedo-file linking a bishop abusing children in the US to Cardinal Ratzinger when he was head of the congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith. This would not be the 1st time that the Vatican high ranking officer would burry such charges even if this time, with 200 children abused over 20 years, it looks more like mass graves under Vatican hill.

Today Pope Benedict is the hot stuff when it comes to that kind of accusation but even before he didn't take any action I guess my wonder is what about the REAL justice. I mean we know the bishop was'nt defrocked but personnaly I couldn't care less about his carrier. What I wonder is "was there ever prosecutions" For me the criminals here are the close Church officials who wrote 2 letters, years appart, to some Cardinal thousands of miles away instead of going to their local police station. What is it ? Are priests and biqhop so out of the real world that they have somz parallel godly courthouses?
And what about the children? 200 deaf children were abused, would a canonical trial defrocking this serial offender have made it all okay? He would have been bqnished from te Church and lose any chance for heaven or somethig like that... Well i beleive he did that on his own before.

What is it with the Church that they believe legal matters should be taken care of internally. I think even more guilty than Ratzinger who didn't allow canonical trial are the Archbishops in the US who just didn't allow ANY kind of unperfect human trial!
