Pope Francis: 'About 2%' of Catholic clergy paedophiles
Pope Francis has been quoted as saying that reliable data indicates that "about 2%" of clergy in the Catholic Church are paedophiles.

Whatever the true prevalence of paedophilia, it's likely to be commoner - and harder to cure - than leprosy ( http://filipinaroses.com/showthread....se-of-the-past ), so good luck to Pope Francis !

As a devout Atheist I have little respect for these parasitic gents in frocks and the nonsense that they spout. Even less so if they are kiddy-fiddling.
What is 'God' doing about it ?

Perhaps he should be given a little credit for acknowledging that there is a problem and appearing to wish to do something about it.
Sadly, the Catholic Church is littered with horror stories going back years and I personally think it's too little too late.
