"We feel like we were ushered out of the building and that was that. It's all been brushed under the carpet.

A committed Catholic despite the horrific abuse that he endured as a child,http://srvctl.sabrexhost.com/forum/viewthread.php?thread_id=0cheapjordanshoesfreeshipping.com/bolg, Mr Saunders said he would urge the Vatican to embark on a wide-ranging discussion on whether priestly celibacy leads to sexual abuse.
He also wants a frank debate on why the Catholic Church continues to ban women from entering the clergy, saying the rule has no basis in the Bible.
He hopes that the commission, which will meet just twice a year, will not turn out to be a “toothless exercise” but will reserve judgment until he sees how much clout it really has.
It was created by the Pope in Dec 2013 but is only now convening for the first time with all its members.
“If the Church is serious about reform and wants to welcome back the many of millions of people who have deserted it in droves then it has to show it is compassionate.”

“I told him that abuse screwed up my life in a very significant way. I’m 57 and I still have weekly therapy. Some people can’t hack it and end up taking their lives.

On Thursday the Pope sent a letter to bishops around the world, ordering them to cooperate with the commission.
"Everything possible must be done to rid the Church of the scourge of the sexual abuse of minors and to open pathways of reconciliation and healing for those who were abused," he wrote.
"Families need to know that the Church is making every effort to protect their children ... priority must not be given to any other kind of concern, whatever its nature,cheap jordan shoes, such as the desire to avoid scandal, since there is absolutely no place in ministry for those who abuse minors."

“Again,cheap air jordans, a Pope talks the talk on abuse while refusing to take even one real step toward walking the walk,” said David Clohessy, the director of the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests, or SNAP.
“The most decisive Pope in memory, who is quickly and dramatically changing church finances, governance and morale,http://www13.plala.or.jp/white_roots/gwbbs/gwbbs.cgicheapjordanshoesfreeshipping.com/bolg, remains stunningly unwilling to deal in any meaningful way with the Church’s greatest on-going crisis.
“Some people praise Francis for appointing yet another abuse panel. But in our view, that’s the last thing the Church needs.”
Bishop Accountability,cheap jordans for sale, another US-based anti-abuse group, said the Pope had failed to act against bishops who are known to be protecting priests accused of abusing or raping children, citing cases in the Philippines.
“An effective universal policy will require such bishops to be removed by the Vatican and their irresponsibility acknowledged by their national conferences and by the Pope,” said Anne Barrett Doyle, a director of the organisation.
“Bishops and religious superiors must be required to report all allegations to law enforcement authorities, even when not mandated by secular law, and they must be required to publicly release information about credibly accused priests, including the priests' names,cheap jordans, assignment histories, alleged crimes, and church files.”
