The real problem in the sexual allegations stories has been the bishops' refusal to be legally available to answer questions about their actions, personal or other wise. Because they refuse to answer, to be accountable in any way, they chose to "settle out of court" and pay large sums (with other people's money) to the accusers, whether the allegations are true or not. That has prevented any honest and useful investigation of what has gone on. It has made it harder to get the message out that abuse of any child by any adult is wrong and must be dealt with; criminal abuse must be dealt with as such. The bishop's have been in a CYA mode, and truth is left out in the cold. Cover up is criminal, also.

Reminded by the same reporter from the above item that self-flagellation with large leather whips is also often considered a big, fat turn-on for millions of fetishists worldwide, the priest blinked a few times, turned a very bright color of crimson and began shuddering all over in what appeared to be some sort of rapturous delight as his eyes rolled back and body convulsed and a long moan escaped his being. And then he fainted. - alapoet, on 08/15/2008, -0/+3Mark Morford is one of the best -- and funniest -- writers in America today.
