The issue with the Catholic Church and it’s negative PR…

is not Catholic-bashing on behalf of our (undoubtebly Leftist), as some (such as Andrew Bolt) have suggested, but the very simple fact that Catholic authorities have used their power to cover up crimes. And some very, very horrible crimes at that. The simple fact that Cardinal Pell attempted to cover up a sexual abuse scandal because he thought it would be damaging to the Church should mean that he’s out of a job and been decried in all segments of the media. Regardless of circumstance, he should have realised that the potential that an innocent victim would be ignored by the Church outweighs the image the Catholic Church presents. And Bolt’s attempt to paint the more-than-justified outraged at Pell’s morally bankrupt behaviour is despicable.
