how far is pope's action justifiable in trying to save the child abusers? is it not his duty to condemn the prists suffering from paedo philia, a sexual perversion act?

all the right thinking people should denounce the edict issued by pope to cover up the sexual pervert actions of priests. those priests should be sent to psychiatrists for therapy . they are to be given stringent punishment.pope did really issued orders not make the child abuse by priests a public issue.

Yes, it is the duty of the pope to set down the law in this regard. No, I have not seen any cover-up. (Won't vouch for the actions of certain bishops, though.)
This really isn't a good question until you give us some basis for discussion. There are already too many generalities involved - for example, which pope are you talking about? To which edict are you referring? This is a serious topic - those men who dared touch a child are sick at best and monsters at worse - and it deserves serious debate. I can only speak about what I know at the local (diocesan) level, so any *facts* from the Vatican would be interesting.

That bandwagon is long long gone. The abusive clergymen usually acted a protracted time in the past, dysfunctional adult males allowed into the priesthood below regrettably misunderstood Vatican II council rules. they're now frequently previous adult males paying for the sins of their until now years. The confession sales area can not be used for something better than grimy communicate, because of the fact the priest is in one compartment, and the confessing man or woman in yet another, linked basically by using a head-extreme establishing obscured by using show fabric. virtually all of grimy communicate comes from the single doing the confessing, nonetheless, no longer the priest. undemanding rules alongside with "no babies on my own with an grownup" -- discovered to be *very useful* interior of Boy Scouts -- can help. larger screening of applicants for the priesthood will help over the years.
