Victims Groups Accuse Pope

He probably did. They all did.

its known he did this. also, hypocritically, he is anti gay rights in catholicism.

Is that not a standard pre-requisite for the job?

Liberation Theology but not for the dirty homos. Unless they are fellow priests.

Oh Surprise Surprise…

What r3 said. This was probably in the plus column when they were weighing their options at the conclave.

Did any US bishop not mishandle sex abuse cases? I imagine they all did.

Surprise! Surprise!!

[quote]Six weeks before American Cardinal Robert Prevost became Pope Leo XIV, the activist group Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests (SNAP) filed a complaint against him, along with other church leaders, to the Vatican’s Secretary of State, Cardinal Pietro Parolin.

Okay, the timing does seem sus. I wouldn't be surprised if it was coming from Parolin's camp.

He’s a piece of shit. The entire Catholic Church needs to be shut down.

Dolan's like "Hell yeah, that's my boy!" right about now.

Wow, this is COMPLETELY UNEXPECTED.

Then, too, there's that old photo of him wearing a tan suit!

SMH.

I am just shocked by this news. Shocked I tell you. Who could imagine a Pope for five days comes under attack by a victims group ?

Did any of you all actually read the article? The charges are pretty flacid. The Chicago transgression seems innocent, the Peruvian ones just one incident that seems incomplete and there are quotes saying how much better Prevost was than most. Seems like sour grapes to me.

It's spelled "flaccid," r15.

Didn't your spellcheck underline it when you typed it?

Let's be real, God is just an adult version of Santa Claus. The sooner off people accept that, the world will become a better place.

He seems like a charisma-free dweeb. But the Vatican feels like they're losing the U.S. (money) thus the choice.

Well THAT didn't take long. In other news, water is wet.

Does the pope shit in the woods? Of fucking course there's been abuse, especially if it's the unruly American Catholic Church.

This is probably true. However, please remember how much Qatar and others gave financial support to pro-Palestinian protestors. This Pope is in the cross-hairs of MAGA due to immigration views, workers' rights, and Ukraine.

[bold]So, be skeptical about this news coming out now; it looks like an attempt to kneecap the Pope and force a change. Benedict already set the precedent in modern times.[/bold]

NOTES:

>>> Steve Bannon is already claiming the papal election was rigged. Wants to set up a conservative shadow monastery in Rome - like a shadow government in the UK.

>>> Pakistan wanted anti-India protests in the West to support its cause. Nothing happened, and it could not get financing. Pakistan's current beef with India is that Modi grabbed a disputed province. And no one cared. No news came out of the province for months, along with rumors of Modi consolidating his power.

It didn't come out now, this has been known about for years

He's a registered repuglican and his brother is a maga idiot.....so there you go.

Did he fuck any of the hot Peruvian guys in that pic?

Worry about Donald Trump being a convicted felon and raping young girls with Epstein then the gringos could throw stones!!

America has a convicted felon as President!!! Dude, check yourself before you wreck yourself!!
