Blame Game

Michael Novak is still trying to blame the priest sex scandals on the 60's and liberal bishops in his review of a book by JPII hagiographer, George Weigel.

Somehow the fact that plenty of doctrinaire priests have been naughty, and that plenty of bad things occurred before the 60's here and in Canada, Australia, and elsewhere is a matter of no never mind. There's no fault attached to the Vatican either. Apparently its nuncios around the world didn't keep the Curia informed. No, the fault is America and 60's permissive culture.

What a load of tripe!

Gone unmentioned is the fact that probably even more sex abuse scandals involved girls and women which have been unreported and swept aside even now. What a den of vipers, and what a pack of lap dogs barking for them.
