Pope Stays Silent On Sex Abuse Scandals



As allegations of child sex abuse charges continue to mount against the Catholic Church, Pope Benedict has avoided any mention of the scandal. There are allegations that the Vatican tried to cover up the abuse claims. At the start of Easter Sunday Mass in St. Peter's Square, the dean of the College of Cardinals said Benedict was the target of what he called "petty gossip."

What? That he was the guy in charge of the cover-up whilst the preveous imcumbant was 'not all here' and he effectively ran the Vatican.
