The following clip is not surprising if you have been following the news about the Roman Catholic Church and the multitude of sexual assault cases it is been implicated in. Furthermore, the individual in charge of the rape-brigade priests is none other than Joseph Ratzinger, who now is the high exalted one in the RCC.   Essentially the Cardinal’s role was to take the side of the abuser and to delay and obfuscate the process enough to maintain the status-quo.

What sort of moral fibre is this current pope made of considering that, by his writ, he allowed the abuse of children to continue under his watch?  It is news like this that is always close to the top of my mind when I hear the pious bloviating on how there would be no morality without religion.  Indeed.
