Cardinal: I should've done more (Abusive Priests)

Two damning reports released by the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Chicago Monday show how missteps by Cardinal Francis George and a host of other church officials allowed an accused pedophile priest to remain in ministry for years with unfettered access to scores of children.

The reports were commissioned by the archdiocese after the Rev. Daniel McCormack was charged with molesting three boys at Chicago's St. Agatha parish between September 2001 and December 2005.

In the review of the archdiocese's monitoring system for accused pedophile priests, Terry Childers, a clinical social worker and consultant to the U.S. Courts and Federal Judicial Center on sex offender supervision, said the monitoring system allows accused priests to remain anonymous -- a state in which sex offenders "thrive."

When George learned McCormack had been questioned by police but that authorities did not feel they had enough evidence to charge him with a crime, the cardinal refused to remove the young, popular priest from ministry -- despite a "precautionary" recommendation from his own review board that McCormack be yanked from St. Agatha.

I deserve Parkinson's Disease because I want to cultivate babies for my own use. It was in reference to stem cell research. I have no use for this man who would never be half the cardinal that the late Cardinal Bernadine was. The difference between the two? Well Cardinal Bernadine never thought that a fetus was a more important than a disabled person. Hell yeah I'll kiss his ring he has to kiss my you know what first.

They're the religious equivalent of neo-cons: self-serving, short-sighted and dangerous to society.

but in certain cases like people who molest kids AND cover those cases up...I'd be awfully tempted to make an exception.

a campaign against the cardinal? Or is he hands off because they share the same quaint superstitions?
