On December 13, 2003, Hill shocked officials at a Christmas benefit concert at the Vatican by denouncing "corruption, exploitation, and abuses", in reference to the child molestation of boys by Catholic officials in the United States of America and the cover-up of offenses by Catholic Church officials.

Yeah, let's attack a bunch of Italian cardinals for the sins of some American ones. That's fair.
Anti-Catholics may dress up their bigotry differently at times - feigning righteous outrage over the child abuse that actual Catholics like "Voice of the Faithful" have really taken on. But underneath the disguise they are still the same old "down with the papists" bigots in white sheets or orange sashes that they've always been!

I will take a guess and say what she did was just mildly inappropriate. Glad to see her in the news though. I always wondered what happened to her.
Remember when it was reported that she didn't like singing for white people? Those were the good old days.

First of all, attacking the entire Catholic religion is wrong in her context. Not all Catholic officials are child molesters. As far as I know Christians didn't attack her. I don't really consider Catholics to be christians.

Why would you surprised at things like this? Jesus rebuked the religious people of His time on earth - those who were not true to there faith, that is.
