VATICAN CITY — Few eyebrows were raised last week when Pope Francis brought the Vatican’s legal system up to date by criminalizing leaks of official information and formalizing laws against sex crimes. But now that the laws have been made public, a closer look revealed that the pope has made it illegal to report sex crimes against children.
According to the new laws, revealing or receiving confidential Vatican information is now punishable by up to two years in prison, while newly defined sex crimes against children carry a sentence of up to twelve years. Because all sex crimes are kept confidential, there is no longer a legal way for Vatican officials to report sex crimes. It seems to be a very good reason for public concern and a thought-provoking law essay topic for students, doesn’t it?
“We didn’t mean for this to happen, obviously,” lamented Vatican foreign minister Monsignor Dominique Mamberti. “It’s quite the papal pickle that His Holiness has placed upon our heads. Sex crimes are more illegal than ever, but technically it’s illegal to report them.” Mamberti said that the simultaneous passing of each law is merely a coincidence and insisted that the Church is not trying to protect itself against further embarrassment, but critics outside the Vatican are skeptical.
“They know exactly what they’re doing,” claims Fabrizio Perona of Italy’s La Repubblica newspaper. “They just thought nobody would notice. The Church wants to impress the world by getting tough on sex crimes, but they criminalized leaks, which is the only way anybody would ever discover their crimes. It’s genius, if you stop and think about it.”
Mamberti says plans are already being made to eliminate the loophole, but change often comes slowly to antiquated Vatican law, which is based on the 1889 Italian code. “We’re not going to let a dangerous law like this stand, but people need to understand that this is the Vatican, and there is a process here. Voting, incense, prayer. We ask the minors at risk to please be patient with us.”
Fortunately, only clergy and lay people who live and work in Vatican City are subject to the new legislation, which differs from the canon law governing the universal Catholic Church.
As the Holy See moves to clarify the law, Mamberti has warned would-be offenders within Vatican walls that they “are still subject to the most watchful eye of all: the eye of God. His judgment is greater than—oh, who am I kidding? For now, there is nothing we can do.”

look after the magdalen vicitims in ireland…all they want is the wages owed to them, you shower of abusers, claiming to do good under the name of god..he wouldn’t wipe his ass with you wankers!
There is a civil responsibility to report sex crimes. In almost every Western country, teachers and other people with responsibility for children MUST report. Disobey this law – it is ridiculous.
and not a single facebook post realizes this is a satire site… I wonder if literally unbelievable takes non onion submissions.
Everyone that comments on this assumes that it is true. Use your heads people. Regardless of your hatred towards the Catholic Church do you really think that it’s leader would make this illegal when he knows how touchy this subject is? We’re all human beings. Let’s start using our brains! I feel like this world gets dumber everyday!
this is a joke. Its a satire, hello. Look at some of the headlines. JLo performs for reanimated corpse of Pol Pot, Texas to legalize rape since it doesn’t lead to pregnancy…This is happening more and more often.
If they really believed in Christ no one will really care about unjust laws because Gods Laws are the basis of all creation. But we see where their belief lies, in earthly power. The people have to put an end to this whole Chatholic out dated meaningless religion…..SMH
People, please read:

Is the above story labeled “Too absurd to satirize”? No? Then…
(I’m apologizing ahead of time if I offend anyone with my language or Catholics out here with my views, not my intention HOWEVER if I don’t say what I feel my head will explode & we don’t want that.)
Here we go:
I know I shouldn’t be surprised by this popes actions BUT it seems to me that he much like the dead fucker before him are more concerned in hiding the truth than doing anything about it. The fact that their priest have & continue to rape. molest & sexually exploit little innocent children at an alarming rate should be enough to try them & shut the Vatican down. BUT let’s face it money talks & politics reign. May God have no mercy on their pathetic souls.
You do all know that much of this is satire, don’t you. I’m an Atheist but lets be reasonable and look at facts not fallacy.
A BUNCH OF MEN TAKING OATHS TO GOD OF PURITY AND SPREAD NOTHING BUT HURT PAIN AND SUFFERING ON BABIES! GROSSS SICK CHURCH TO ALLOW IT!
Tell me this, why would you feel it necessary to bring in such a law if you have nothing to hide, so I’m simply saying He knows what’s been going on and shut the door for us decent people to prosecute these filthy slime bags, well I say lets kick the bloody door in!
Why can’t I find any sources than this one? I even Googled the Italian journalists name and couldn’t find a reference. Am I doing something wrong or is this story a little shady?
its seems to me they found an avenue to continue the practices of pedophilia by priest. I hope this break up the church completely.
just when I think religion can’t get anymore stupid, it exceeds its previous stupidity level.
None of ’em were worried about the ‘eye of god’ when they were raping kids! F$£%$in hypocrites!
Does he realize the audaciy of his statement; “There is a process here. Voting, incense, prayer. We ask the minors at risk to please be patient with us.” – Yes, Yes, definitely, you light some incense and pray while an innocent person or child is being sexually abused. Change your legal system today!
You guys do realize this is satire, right?
IS THIS A FUCKING JOKE?
The pope is unchanging in mentality – same role, different person. Let us not forget it was the POPE that started the very public European wide action to the crusades centuries ago – same role, different person. Let us not forget, this century, that THIS POPE -same role, different person – is the one who has said if you follow him on Twitter you’ll get free entry into Heaven (words to that effect anyway) (Google it), much the same as the POPE centuries ago said that to “fight” for Christianity would be penance enough for your sins and you would gain entry into Heaven.
I think the devil is in the house……either leave your children at home or make sure they never leave your side while there and of course chaperone at every activity your child is involved in. In cahoots with Obama……DAMNING ALL THE WHISTLEBLOWERS…….what’s going on in the world?
Whatever line of “reasoning” was followed to achieve this result does not match Pope Francis’ life of reaching out to “The least of these”. It seems the previous Vatican bureaucracy must have pushed for this decision.
What in the Hell? Who in the Hell? Why in the Hell? How in the Hell? Where in the Hell? When in the Hell? Go straight to Hell! That new guy is evil as HELL!
“….minors at risk please be patient with us.” Are you kidding me? Oh, gosh we understand that you’re 13 and being molested, but you need to give us several years to get our shit together before we can help you.
The Roman Catholic Church is an EVIL Pagan Cult dressed up with words and names that are found in the bible.
Papal pickle yeah now he can hide his papal pickle wherever he wants….sick fuckin bunch O’ freaks.
“We ask the minors at risk to please be patient with us.” – this is a joke, right?
pervert Pedo…popes and priests. …!!!!!!!
TYPICAL! COLLUSION ALL THE WAY…
If you live on that place, hide your children!
the true face of SATAN…
Why do all these people not get that this story is basically satire?
Has anyone noticed what’s actually true in this article? It’s mostly satirical entertainment. At the bottom of the article, click the “Show Facts” button, and it’ll highlight the true news. The rest is entirely fabricated.
Anyone who protects people who violate children are unworthy of the status of human.
Religion is poison and it’s appalling at how many still believe in this b.s. Mamberti: “It’s quite the papal pickle that His Holiness has placed upon our heads. Sex crimes are more illegal than ever, but technically it’s illegal to report them.” Seriously? Quite the papal pickle? This crap just gets better.
Religion is the root of all evil, hatred, abuse, racism, terrorism, and misogyny. That should be ENOUGH said.
“We are all atheists about most of the gods that humanity has ever believed in. Some of us just go one god further.” – Dawkins.
I´m so disapointed…. I had high hopes for this pope…
Bad laws are not enforceable, and should not be obeyed.
I foolishly thought that they would progress into the 21st Century and elliminate this type of “Crime” against children – MY MISTAKE == They simply wish to protect themselves from public exposure and scrutiny, something they have always been doing. There is NO protection for the innocent victims (children) here.
What a farce .. my disgust with these jerks grows bigger every day.
in a 1984 pedophilia-banking-religious-cartel scenario, hypocrisy found a way to self-expose how those stealers manipulate laws for their best intesrests in their owned judiciary corporated mafia systems…
Vatican might be the smallest country in the world (if it still has a meaning to be as they are guilty of abuse of powers on too many fronts) it’s the biggest pedophilia mafia on Earth: “It’s quite the papal pickle that His Holiness has placed upon our heads. Sex crimes are more illegal than ever, but technically it’s illegal to report them.” Mamberti said that the simultaneous passing of each law is merely a coincidence and insisted that the Church is not trying to protect itself against further embarrassment, but critics outside the Vatican are skeptical. ”There is a process here. Voting, incense, prayer. We ask the minors at risk to please be patient with us.”.
– What!
“They know exactly what they’re doing,” claims Fabrizio Perona of Italy’s La Repubblica newspaper. “They just thought nobody would notice. The Church wants to impress the world by getting tough on sex crimes, but they criminalized leaks, which is the only way anybody would ever discover their crimes. It’s genius, if you stop and think about it.”.

You people realize this story (and site) are fake right? Just look at the other headlines. If Texas was really making noise about legalizing rape, it’d be all over the place, along outrage.
THE POPE SHOULD ISSUE A BULL STATING THAT THE LAW IS WRONG- AND ANY ONE NOT REPORTING A SEX CRIME AGAINST A CHILD IS EXCOMMUNICATED ANYONE FOUND GUILTY OF CHILD ABUSE IS EXCOMMUNICATED.
“It’s genius, if you stop and think about it.” Really? Wow, Fabrizio Perona you have a loose definition of genius. It’s simple and it’s sleazy. But mixing religion with lawyers, what would one expect?
My favorite is – “…there is a process here. Voting, incense, prayer. We ask the minors at risk to please be patient with us.” So basically – “Just grin and bear that large man’s penis while we burn things to appease and appeal to our wondrous and magical man in the sky for the wisdom to stop that man from doing that to you.”
Religion just needs to end. Grow up, people.
Has everyone gone totally insane?
Seriously people, use your brains, look at some of the other headlines: U.N. Recognizes Syrian People as ‘In Trouble, and Stuff’.
Does that resemble a real news article?
Do you know how ridiculous you all look right now?
It’s funny how so many people have read this and believed it to be 100% true, when clearly it isn’t. A bit like the bible, really. Just goes to show how susceptible and gullible people are. Religion is for the weak-minded.
You people do realize that this is a fake news website, right? I mean, look at all the other articles…
This website is satire in the way that the Onion is satire. This isn’t true.
DEMONS PREY ON CHILDREN! A CHURCH FULL OF DEMONS! SICK SICK SICK!
As an atheist I had high hopes that this pope would be something different. The humble, no-frills, care-for-the-least-among-us guy that we’ve seen up to this point certainly doesn’t jive with the image of a pope who would protect abusers of children, but we have been deceived before. As a non-religious person, it is always my hope that people of faith will actually understand the basic teachings & expectations of their sacred texts and act accordingly, but it’s so rarely the case, especially on an institutional level. The ‘big three’ monotheistic faiths all have peace and charity, humility and equality at their very core, yet so few actually behave as if they really ‘get it’. I don’t believe in a deity, but I wish those who did practiced what their texts instruct, instead of finding ways to make those texts justify their own views. I know a few people who do live their faith as it was intended, but they are few and far between.
Protect your kids ,don’t trust nobody with your kids. No matter what faith , I wouldnt blindly trust anybody with my kids, can’t believe sum folks continue to put thier own kids in known suspect situations
THIS IS A SATIRE SITE, PEOPLE. Just take a look at the titles of the articles and it’s clear that it is. It’s just like the Onion.
God, please protect me from Your followers!
This is satire~.
This is a satire news site. What they report is not the REAL news but falsified to be humorous news. I can not believe the number of people who actually believe this article. If you believe it you may find the onion news site equally interesting. The squirrels are not all done with the nuts yet!
This is an unjust and unholy law that the Vatican has passed! These people employ legal professionals who know every caveat and loophole and are experts in creating them. To claim that this law was an accident and its coinciding with the other law was mere coincidence – is another lie! They know what they’re doing and they know it will be years before any changes will happen (that is IF there is public protest), by that time it will become canon law! The RC church is rife with paedophilia and those who sanction these laws are just as much involved. But this is the way they want it!

LOL, you all do realise that Newslo is like wiki…. It is not factual.
I’m not sure what’s scarier – the actual, official policies and practices of the Catholic church, or the breathtaking stupidity on display here from people too dense to recognize satire when they read it.
Well they just gave sainthood to the pope who arranged for all papers on child abuse to be securely gathered up from around the world to held in the Vatican city state library so no one could see them.
I can’t decide which Abrahamic religion is the most evil anymore! there is so much evidence for each!
Nothing we can do? We can expose the Pope for what he is. A supporter of Child molesters who try to hide behind the cloke of God. Too late Pope… YOUR nakedness is now exposed.
what a disgusting malevolent piece of SHIT…
please be patient while you get raped….fuck off!
Reporting a crime should never be a crime! Shame on you!
This article is a FAKE! in italy no one speaks about this! This phantomathic Fabrizio Perona of “La Repubblica” doesn’t exist! the only site that says something about this is this one and every other international site that reports the same news posts links to this page…
This is not a real news story! 🙂
I would love to Kick that smile off his face.
Just disgusting.
He is OBVIOUSLY molesting little boys!
few eyebrows were raised? lol
It’s a joke !!!!!
Null & void dick head
whta’s new?
The Catholic Church is run by and for child abusers, it is not a natural human way for any man to abstain from sex be they straight or gay.The fact that George.W.Bush. passed a law that made Pope JP the 2nd and all Pope’s thereafter EXEMPT from criminal prosecution of any kind should raise an enormous amount of suspicion of all Catholic Clergy.Each and everyone of them are guilty of crimes against humanity.They only get away with it because those dummies that follow this so called religión are totally brainwashed, starting the minute they are born.Wake up you fucking MORONS.
If they obeyed the bible and allow the men to marry they would have an outlet to their passion….and the children would be safe…..the first command in the bible is fill the earth…….and the part where it says IF YOU CAN MAKE ROOM FOR IT ( TO STAY SINGLE) THEN MAKE ROOM FOR IT…It is not a command for men to be celibate……And what is so celibate about sex with minors..it is still sex.
The Catholic Church is a work of the devil to mislead people. Their churches are full of idols they chant (repeat prayers over and over) they call their teachers Father they forbid them to marry and then their fruits the evil the catholic church seethes with. Just my opinion. But, Scriptural as well, just saying.
This is the dumbest bullshit ever. The pope IS the devil. I cant believe these assholes are even relevant anymore. it makes followers no better than child rapists because they condone this behavior.
talk abiout covering thier own asses……………… no way in hell I would let them near my child………..no matter how you cut it…………they are perverts and now they have made laws to protect the perverts.
Very dismayed that this Pope has not gotten rid of the old Dark Ages teaching on Purgatory. No Purgatory in the Bible teachings.
This is solely so that the clergy can continue molesting and raping children legally. Fucking disgusting. May their rotten, shrivelled up dicks fall off.
I knew hardcore Catholics were nuts (I grew up Catholic) and lacked logic and reason when it came to their beliefs, but how dumb do they think people are?
I do not recognize the sovereignty of Vatican law. I do not recognize the statehood of the Vatican. If I can’t have a place where my word is law, neither can they.
This Pope is as bad as the rest, protect the pedophile priests as they are so hard up for working priests.
that’s only because if it passes he and his pedo buddys gets to rape yet another 12 year old boy…down with the catholic church, corrupt as fuck! down with the bastards!
Nice to know the “watchful eye” of god is protecting our children. He probably enjoys the show as much as the dirty priests do.
LOL. What a joke. The response of the Catholic Church to pedophile priests would have us believe that this was no “oversight” Monsignor!
Must be nice to sit upon your ‘holey’ throne, leaks & all, while helpless children are abused, tortured & foresaken by you.
If you are here you want to like this page –> Religion Vs Logic… all this is bullshit.
What did you expected from a Free Mason Jesuit? You thought he was going to be any different… Lol!!
“We ask the minors at risk to please be patient with us.”
EXCUSE ME, WHAT?
Sounds like the real papal pickle will still be invading underaged anuses.
When stupid laws like this are passed, its time to ignore the law. Simple.
I’m not convinced this is anything legit? Is it a wind-up?
Are you f#cking serious?
Who has the power to shut em down?
Protecting the Papal Pickle.
HAIL SATAN!

My answer to this is at aquariuschildren .com
There is no doubt in my mind but that this asshole knows exactly what he’s doing.
Wow! Since the poop is infallible. And this is the direct word of god. Looks to me like god is a child molester.
Or maybe there is no god? And the church has been lying to everyone since it started.
It is one or the other. Whichever you pick, dose not look good.
They all bent whom support gaging laws, people have the right to know who the kiddy fiddlers are in the Vatican, the church by hiding things that are wrong by priests are doing the church an injustice and people involved must be brought to book.
The Vatican has a problem to solve quickly before they go to purgatory and to hell.
No one should agree or obey this. Did I read this correctly? It’s just too unbelievable.
In typical denial mode, Jon Sorensen of Catholic Answers offhandedly dismissed this article as unreliable. His premise being that there is a button that separates the facts from the commentary. He implies that this makes Newslo a parody site, rather than a news site which just happens to have a useful tool.
The facts and commentary of the article both point to the simple truth that the new Pope has indeed made it illegal for Vatican Officials to report abuse. Given the history of the Vatican’s many crimes and cover-ups. this move is not surprising. It’s yet another indication of an evil corrupt system which is bent on protecting it’s reputation, rather than protecting victimized children.
Justin Dodd of Newslo got it right, and Jon Sorensen (article linked below) is propping up his denial on a heaping pile of balderdash.
http://www.catholic.com/blog/jon-sorensen/pope-criminalizes-the-reporting-of-sex-crimes
reporting juvenile sex crimes should be mandatory within the church, and penalized if not reported.
holy shit what is wrong with the world . a church isn’t suppossed to worship mammon money.
We’re not going to let a dangerous law like this stand, but people need to understand that (it takes lots of time). We ask the minors at risk to please be patient with us.” –
We just ask them just to put up with being raped and psychologically tortured until we can get around to stopping the people doing it to you. Just remember that suicide is a sin.
Seriously… we need to get rid of this shite. Why are we as a human race even tolerating this religious tripe? Law, tradition… ROME. Sex crimes against children should be punishable by death (yes, death) and let us TRY and build a safe haven where our children can enjoy what should be the most beautiful part of their lives. If we do not start now, the blame will not be on religion or law but on us.
I am interested… would anyone agree?
And people wonders why there are so many people that don’t believe in God and religion…. allowing these types of people to run the religious community….. I think I would rather keep my family beliefs as they are and keep my children safe from the disgusting illegal bull that goes on inside the churches…. because if it was one of my children I wouldn’t care how illegal reporting it was, I would spend my life in prision to protect them if necessary!
Mamberti says plans are already being made to eliminate the loophole, but change often comes slowly to antiquated Vatican law, which is based on the 1889 Italian code.
Did he mean, eliminate the poophole?
Wow r u kidding me this aint about whos real!! These ppl r trying too help predators as i see the kids should not go near the pope or that place.. poor babies that r being molested right now ppl need too change this and protect kids from these sickos.. that proves the pope is a perv
This is 2013, how anyone can believe this crap is beyond me. There is no God, your lives are wasted expecting a reward after our death, for being sheep..
If there was a god and he had a plan all you whining to it (prayers) would be a waste f time anyway. Why would it change its plan to make you happy?
Love the “papal pickle” comment. As if a lame attempt at humor is going to mask the horrors the Vatican is trying to conceal and wheedle out of paying for. I am so disappointed in this new pope. I really thought he would be different.
Now the Pedo’s can get sanctuary within the Pedo Ring, and even if they get caught by outsiders, 12 year’s in minuscule compared to the life sentence of the victim.
Rotten to the very fabric of it’s foundation.!
The Vatican is also its own country , so they can make there own laws at any time, its time for people to realize that religion , all religions, are man made , god didn’t make man , man made god, we must stop believing in this rubbish.
Pope better double the thickness of the glass on the Popemobile if he comes anywhere near my neighborhood. DEATH TO PEDOPHILES, NO MATTER WHAT KIND OF HAT THEY WEAR!
I don’t see why people are so concerned about this papal b.s. Isn’t the priests or any member of the church subject and answerable to the laws of the country where they are in?
All religion is mental illness, so why does anything these perverts do surprise us?
God is the most evil of human inventions, religion is proof of that. The catholic church is one of the more disgusting manifestations of religion, much like Islam!
“Please be patient with us. Your safety and well being as a child is a bit less important than our incense.”
“We ask the minors at risk to please be patient with us!” << don't worry choir boys well protect you, eventually.
How about more “voting” and less “incense and prayer” to cut back the turnaround time a little?
Incense and prayer are now part of a legal process?
This is a Poe
shh… no report about abuses. let the offenders’ identities be kept secret. no report no offender no abused… peaceful?
KARMA will come in due time… and for now, let them enjoy a normal life? WTF!
I am catholic and it is embarrassing…
The church has been exposed on so many levels and they don’t like it. Man is this lame!
Yeah, like I believe that crap. A blog with someone with an ax to grind. Where’s that bridge in Brooklyn you want to sell me?
The pope needs to get real, children are our future and if scum want to interfere with them, then they should be castrated and jailed. If the pope prefers to back these scum, then the pope should step down.
One of my eyebrows is in orbit right now..
If you actually read the article it’s just another instance of an accidental application of the law not meant to be enforced. Relax people.
What if a children who has been raped is reporting the crime? Does he go to juvenile jail? If his mom report it, does she go to jail? This is seriously fucked up.
Just got to love Mamberti’s warning to would-be offenders that they “are still subject to the most watchful eye of all: the eye of God”.
Doesn’t he realize that these criminals don’t even believe in God. And what good is “the watchful eye of God” if He does nothing to prevent even one single child from being sexually abused.
What a pile of garbage. So, child pornography is now legalized in the Catholic church? What a sham and disgrace. Warman Barnard.
It’s a “papal pickle”? You mean you can’t decide which to do – listen to the Pope or report RAPE? IS IT REALLY A FUCKING CHOICE?
religions = criminal associations!
lol with this christians.
I´m so disapointed…. I had high hopes for this pope…
SAVE THE CHILDREN BURN DOWN ALL CATHOLIC CHURCHES!
This is a stupid area. Combining facts and non facts? Garbage.
We need a new inquisition , this time we will burn popes alive.
Isn’t he infallible?
fuck god and fuck the church.
This is a result of who he is …the false prophet preparing the way for the antichrist. Keep watching and be amazed, disgusted as the truth is being seen. All events predicted have happened. What could be more evil than this? thewarningsecondcoming.com
REALLY UNDER WHO’s ATHORITY DOES HE FEEL INTITLED, WHO ARE WE PROTECTING HERE! IRELEVANT CRIMINAL IMMORAL PEOPLE STILL IN POWER WHO’s IS TO BLAME FOR THIS WE ARE WHILE WE CONTINUE TO FIGHT EACH OTHER INSTEAD OF REMOVING THOSE THAT CAUSE DISCORD, SHAME ON HUMANITY!
anyone who believes he was a complete innocent, not knowing the implications of his actions.. will probably believe he knew nothing of the Argentinian regime’s death squads too…
Surely, it’s where the “papal pickle” is getting placed that’s causing the worry in the first place!
catholics are camouflaged pagans and satanists.

http://www.ibtimes.com/pope-francis-criminalizes-child-sex-abuse-vatican-leaks-motu-proprio-1342173
Here is a link to the proper article. This is nothing more than gutter journalism. As the title says – pope has criminalized child sex abuse. Dodd….wow….stooping to all new lows. Hope it helps mend your poor little ego.
If the Vatican want’s to keep this law that exploits children at risk, perhaps the rest of the civilized world should declare Catholicism as an ADULT ONLY Organization. Children under the age of 18 should be barred from entering Catholic Churches, just like they are not allowed to enter strip clubs and the like, because they (Vatican Officials) are protecting the perpetrators, and handing them more innocent children with this new law designed to exploit children.
How can this bloke in one quick move cover all the filth that’s gone on there, and that guy Mamberti says stay calm because this was based on a 1889 Vatican law its going to take a lot of time to reverse this law, BULL SHIT mate change it now or we over throw the bloody Vatican!
Is this for real?
It just doesn’t make sense.
http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew+18%3A6&version=NIV
How do we know the pope hasn’t molested any kids? He’s still covering up for them that did, WHY?
Wrong he did not criminalize the reporting of sex crimes against children he criminalized publicizing them much the same as it is in the US, preventing the children from being IDENTIFIED.
“We ask the minors at risk to be patient with us……” REALLY!!!! You dogs! There may be a child in a dark room scared half to death being molestered and the best you can do is ask them to understand your process. This really sickens me. As much as you claim to be about God and religion, I just can’t see a man like Jesus stand idle and wait for this “due process”. I am beside myself with rage! Hiding behind tradition is do very weak, but regardless of any points, a debate, understanding process, children are in unfathomable risk as a result, and you can file that paperwork to be dealt with at the right time. Ask the child or the parents when the right time is, I know what the answer will be!!! I can’t think straight, this is insanity!! .
Fucking shame. I thought he would be the one to change things but I got my hopes up for nothing. This man, like many others in such a highly respected religious position, speak for themselves and their special interests and not for a higher being. This is why I don’t go to a Church or call myself anything. What I believe, stays at home with me and my family. If it’s not Politics I don’t share it like an STD.
I’d say the Church can expect many MORE people to be leaving flock. A lot of people have left, and many more are on the fence because of the politics and the Church being too inflexible in these times.
Religion is a crutch, Abolish it all and the world will be a better place for it. Stop looking to something that isn’t there and start dealing with your own shit instead of pretending some stupid imaginary freak will forgive you and you will float away to some stupid “Heaven” Get a grip people, all of our flipping wars are all based on stupid religion, if we didn’t have it we would all be the same and get along right……
So when you’re visiting the Vatican, you want to make sure you don’t take your children with you. Meanwhile, people in countries with the opposite laws, where FAILING to report sex crimes against children is a felony, what do devout Catholics do? Sweep it under the rug? Does this make all devout Catholics potential criminals in every civilized country?
I’m Catholic. See or hear about a child sex crime- 1) Find the Priest or other person 2) Beat the living crap out of him 3) Give him a low blow with a sharp metal object that render him impossible of sticking the little thing in anything again. 4) Now don’t report it until the guy can get up and walk to the Police Station to turn himself in with your foot up his ass.
Wow! fucking irrational pope..get yourself and your legions out of this earth…that’s action is totally insane and unbecoming for a respected pope. that only exposed your org to a bashing spree.
It only shows that there is way more sex crimes than we thought there was..
What the actual fuck? Now why would an old man, who was chosen by god and all that crap, make it ILLEGAL to report sex crimes? No no, I’m sure he’s not trying to hide anything.
This is fucking disgusting. Why isn’t there a law against making stupid laws? or at least one to protect whistle-blowers and people who want justice?
Religion makes me sad..
In a very unfortunate coincidence, “placing the papal pickle on your head” is common slang for what what happens between priests and little boys.
The Catholic Church, biggest crime syndicate in history. Responsible for countless wars, the biggest organized fraud in human history, and rape. Lots, lots of rape.
Remind me not to send any children to the Vatican. I cant even believe I just read this! Something needs to change over there.
This is a Saturday Night Live special, right?
Should get a life sentence for Not reporting it.Should get the key to the city for reporting it. HELLO
cf also animal welfare laws BUT “ag-gag” laws that prevent investigation.
Well, that’s no surprise. More coverups from the pedo in chief.
Shameful for this Pope ignore child sex abuse…
Appalling hypocrisy. One of the reasons why i left.
This calls for civil disobedience.
Imagine that.
rome’s laws come 1st.
The papal pickle? FOR REAL?
what a bloody disgrace……..crap like this is the reason I have nothing to do with religion in general but I despise Catholicism and all that it entails….
Now Catholic priests can rape children even easier.
Retards.
