    So raping young boys raises its' ugly head again and the terrible retribution handed down by the RCC of “sentenced to a life of prayer and penance.” is nothing other than a joke and a terrible misguided action in respect of the victims whose lives are changed for the worse, forever.

    The action needed is to revoke permission for this supporter of sexual deviancy should not lie with the pope. As a man of god (don't even go there) he should have left the RCC when all this came about.

    As for Karadima he should be eunuched in the old manner: with luck he would bleed out and meet his 'master' in about eight minutes, and good riddance.

    Will the damnable RCC EVER get a grip on this, it seems not?

    Surely the Chilean government should let him enter the country, then arrest him, put him on trial and then send him to prison for the rest of his life (if found guilty).

    That would be justice, wouldn't it? It would also get the truth out into the open and not hidden behind the Vatican's closed doors.

    @ 2 LEPRecon
    “Bishop of Osorno, Juan Barros” already IS in Chile as I read it?

    Karadima is the boy shagger.
