Archbishop John Clayton Nienstedt and Auxiliary Bishop Lee Anthony Piche resigned after the diocese was charged by US authorities of failing to protect minors in relation to a parish priest who was jailed for child abuse.

Nice move from our pope

Is not easy for any medically normal person to withstand the temptation of sex in convinence especially in the absence of the Holy spirit in you.

That is made more difficult in contemporary time where sexual elements are pervasive. You look left right and center, all there are sex sex sex in all it's configurations. The bible says, one should flee at such temptation but, one seldomly had the gut to flee. You can only if you were spirit filled.

Am not holding brief for them, rather, stating the obvious. He who had not done worse should cast the first stone.

Whats new, the Christian Church is already famous for its sex scandals; from its fake pastors to child molesters.

coverups in organizations have always been a normal occurence.
