BBC, Irish Catholic Church apologises for abuse by priests:

The leader of the Catholic Church in Ireland has said he is deeply sorry and ashamed about the widespread sexual abuse of children by priests. Cardinal Sean Brady also apologised for the way the Church covered up the abuse, which happened in Dublin. He spoke after an Irish government report revealed abuse over decades, a systematic cover-up by the Church, and a lack of action by the Irish police. The Church put its own reputation ahead of the welfare of children, it found. The Report of the Commission of Investigation into the Catholic Archdiocese of Dublin covered a period from 1975 to 2004. Some offending priests were shifted from parish to parish, leaving them free to abuse again.

Article continues at link.  Shifting priests from parish to parish leaving them free to abuse again was not an isolated error.  It is the official policy of the Roman Catholic Church, established by His Holiness Pope John XXIII on 16 March 1962 and confirmed as still in effect by His Holiness Pope Benedict XVI.  Says who?  The BBC, the same source the above report.  The evidence that the Holy See operates an international child rape ring that enjoys diplomatic immunity is available for anyone who cares to look at it.  Father Michael Canny of the Derry diocese was right on the button when he said “The church has no credibility, no standing, and no moral authority.” Apologies won’t count for much until His Holiness renounces the Crimine Solicitaciones.
