who are entre ought to docs but almost by definition, had no leadership ability in them and were not able to think clearly for themselves . so the, when the crisis hit their was flunked into go yourself bishop over come to the victims yourself and encourage them to go to the place i suppose broke. so should perhaps i should have done, but i am new i've so much to do it was the fact that the church leadership seemed to be quite comfortable lying to people, to protect. and the abuses with evidence mounting up systemic child abuse in church institutions. the irish government commission 3 investigative reports, the reports confirmed us findings that at least 7 percent of all priests work use

defenders is his own of my deep concern. i have written a passer letter dealing mrs payne for situation. i ask all of you to read it, for yourselves is an open heart. and in a spirit of phrase, my hope is said to do to help in the process of repentance, healing, and turn you. to us bishops, he says, we must admit the grave errors of judgment were made on failures of leadership are called which i've seriously undermined our credibility and effectiveness devotee. com. what the vatican had a lot of knowledge in these matters. so in and it was addressed internally within the church at the vatican has never taken political responsibility for its refusal

to listen and for dismissing claims or to slice. and it's easy as a pope or as the cardinal in the vatican cust gold. the bishops for what they've covered up the shins, thereby shifting the blame away from oneself. madame it's supplies, fuzzy saves mixed eliza. ah, and it's very obvious now that what they want to do was to bury the story. and the same attitude went by to the church right up to the vatican. no doubt about it. then a 4th report was published in ireland the coin report. it revealed that the vatican had blocked irish bishop from turning over abuse cases to civil authorities. insisting that civil law does not apply to the church. the vatican refused to take part in the investigation in

a parliamentary session. irish prime minister and kenny took a stand. carter, joseph, rushing, her said standards of conduct appropriate to civil society, or the workings of a democracy cannot be purely and simply applied to the church. it's fair to say that after the royal on them of the reports, ireland is perhaps on shoppable. when it comes to the abuse of children, but kline has proved to be of a different order. because for the 1st time in this country, it reporting to child sexual abuse exposes an attempt for the holy sea to frustrate an inquiry in his sovereign democratic republic. as little as 3 years ago, not 3 decades ago. and in doing so declined report excavate the dysfunction, the disconnection, the leases in the dominant, the culture of the vatican today. i listened to that speech directly because i was

going to be an irish radio show. right after he finished it and comment on it and it brought tears to my eyes. good. thank god, this man is saying, which should have been said a long time ago. quite a tradition many catholic man. regular math score is seen as quite conservative in a lot of ways. nobody expected from him, but it caught the mood of donation in a way that i've seldom seen any political speech in my life time. and suddenly he ta bombed the whole focus of island on the vatican. ah,

ah, technically some it's the core of it is seeing everything from the point of view that we know better than you do. and we can do things better than you can because we are the church they're still a long path to journey in honesty before we can truly marriage forgiveness. archbishop martin got it. he understood just how bad this was. and he cooperated with the government when they were investigating the archdiocese of dublin, he turned over the files voluntarily to abuse. isn't it? isn't it isn't just the, the eel, the actual sexual acts, which are horrendous. but the sexual abuse of the child is a, it's

a total abuse of power. it's actually saying to a child, i control you. and that is saying to the child who are worthless. he was actually doing something in his country in his archdiocese to protect the victims of sexual abuse, to bring about justice. and he went in on the day of the opening of a new school of our elderly archbishop and the minister coming and the girls are all dressed up and their hair combed and song was devastating ah ah,

in 2010, the abuse scandal reached pope benedict bavarian homeland oh a . 2 c

he must have felt h, i mean, he obviously knew the dorm spots and he, he's a ramos bag man for a great part of his life. you know, i mean that was hot, breaking one of the worst of, of the abuse cases. i don't remember any comments act or oh, i mean, ah,

more and more articles came out detailing victim's stories. the vatican was under pressure to respond in 2010 cardinal sedano broke protocol at easter sunday mass to express his support for the pope. barbara, sancho holy father, if any of the people have called the with you in some will not let themselves be influenced by the petty gossip. the moment coleman by the trials that sometimes a sale, the community of believers spirit. littlewood he thought acre then did jesus, jesus said over the in the world, you shall have tribulation that there are 3 bullets healing, but he immediately added gen the be of could chair marvey i have overcome the world into the mando.

ah, a few weeks later the new spiritual movements answered the call to express their solidarity with the holy father and secret. thank you all for being here. good now does is this is the root of the problem? did the other protection that is called upon and the protection that is given hums, the church should sit, it does not protect it, rather it harms it via and that's because it leads the church away from recognizing the truth. i'm a cannot divide the st. select a hat, that was the community similar to the one i was hot off. and perhaps that was me in that moment when he visited us and we all stood there and smiled and pressed his hand and listened t and reverently. and no one asked a question, can i say instead we conveyed exactly what it was he wanted to see in that moment.

and then the fact that the sister who was standing in front of him was raped a few months ago by one of the priests who was also standing in front of him. that is not present in the room. you could say we protected him from that in that moment . the woman shuts. unfortunately, when you have a monarchical system, the most important part of that system is the monarch. the bishops who run the catholic church, protected themselves and their system at all costs. and of course, the major cross, there was the victims of sexual abuse. they were sacrificed for the security and for the image of the governmental system fire system. but in spite of all the pushback in spite of the size of the church, its power and its money, the victims still have something that they don't have. and that's the absolute truth as to what happened to them. ah,

from 2010 on hope benedict traveled around the world. more than ever. he preached about contraception, abortion education, and the importance of the traditional family unit pulp benedict's trip to mexico in 2012 coincided with the publication of $212.00 documents leaked from the vatican archives. they contained evidence that the vatican had been aware of my sales offences since the 1950s. some abuse victims invited pope benedict to meet with them. but he did not go and i was doing nothing except trying to prove that they knew this man was in abuser. and they were willing to leave him in his parish and quiz mentoring children. and they were willing to lie to me and lie and go to the press and say, i was lying. they didn't have any care, a toll about destroying my reputation,

destroying me, am and felt justified in doing that. because in their mind, i was attacking the church and i was said making them look bad because he has some higher. the church exists for the will salvation and therefore it must be protected and its reputation must be protected. and anyone who questions that is there by attacking the church's mission of salvation. and when an outside to comes in asking certain questions, it's always taken as an attack. it's an attack because it destroys this image, which is an end in itself is hips. it's rick, while in mexico, pope benedict sustained a head injury after tripping in the middle of the night. mm. mm. the injury was initially kept quiet, but his doctor advised him to stop his inter continental travel. hulu de isaac mix trip to mexico

was incredibly exhausted as a mood. he was very, very tired. that if lang's i'm, and he recovered somewhat slowly on to and i noticed something's august as a, i'm good. so in prayer ogden, he was even more in it is not even more fervent in even more existential existence . ella, ah, what for those years like for benedict, for joseph that singer gradual realization that all of this institution did. he had given his life to to, there was so much in it, the trust corrupt and the trust seriously. malfunctioning steve or the, let's vh thick, humana city. i am facing the last stretch of my life a. henson and i do not know what will be imposed on me,

but i know that the light of god is that is that he has risen. that that his light is stronger than all darkness. that god's goodness is stronger than all the evil of this world of her lived in 2012, it also surfaced that pope benedict butler. how old o gabriela had been stealing confidential documents for years and passing them on to a journalist for the 1st time, the public had a window into the inner workings of the vatican. v. comped, it's to, i'm the on distance televi come out of such a leak happen. but he fur document. how can a journalist publish letters documents for the or parts of document history for internal business transactions in a book? the a can t amount most as though somebody must have leaked it from the inside from in the and from the very most inner circle. it was the house and get caught up. she,

her english, a definite weakness of rot singer, which was we noted many times you, so i'm not saying anything new here is that he is not the best judge of character out there. as timothy pushing the valley lake scandal revealed in fighting money laundering and corruption in the curio the vatican central administration. the situation had spiraled out of control, escaped from there are 5 or 6 possible theories on the source of the leaks. but then there were 2 things i spotted us and realised it could have only been one person. i only person give either the holy father himself or to sell or me a secretary or another person or very close to have you see a nice we abandon marked isn't but to leaks or we were with him after the variety last summer and he came to speak about paolo often. that was the butler who stole the documents that day. and it became very clear to me that he was not just some

employee there, but that he was more like a son to him. and his confidant is or does vazo foster and eat now broken his father's trust. dehas for that was not only an objective disappointment thus far, that was a deeply human mazata, familial, you might say teeth disappointment for him, familiarly could, to missouri, and toto free. my love was let down again beat out once again. i was looking for love it and i didn't find it to leave and you can't bear that in the long run. gus had more of the dull and least out. pope benedict wanted to ensure there'd be no further leaks. so he ordered an investigation into the power struggles and various networks that play in the vatican. the result was a 300 page dossier will not dim. dan das got an article league you after the college of cardinals elected a new poultice was given. pope frances, up by the elk benedict informed to pope francis about the matter in

a confidential conversation during their 1st meetings, anybody suffering from yet? when had even done, oh, he then also gave him the darcy to see since he supposed to know its contents and can do with it. what he thinks his right canons all dammit it. i mean this objectively closes the mattress about a variety leaks all or picked it up gabriel's that he saw perhaps this would sort of make it a little better if he was officially handing it to the next boat. you see what i mean? shaving his image or something is, i mean, what on earth, why? why incomprehensible. i mean get down to the 2 of you and settle this sense to blame both. got major positions in the world an o, what's all this about? and i still wonder, what does it say, what's in this thing? after all, this is about the courier who you just

reflect back on the beginning of the 20th century. you head on the european con, 3 royal families running, show the romanovs in russia. the horns all in some germany and the hops works in the austro hungarian empire where the, the leadership of all 3 of those was real. they were real emperors, real kinks and they are of real czar and they really had power. however, what they failed to see was that this power was useless and they weren't responding to the real needs of their people who no longer we're going to remain silent. and in some ways there's an analogy with the institutional catholic church, which is another absolute monarchy. benedict symbolized the catholic church as monarchy. and he hoped that it would be a successful,

effective form of government. but it isn't at the 2nd vatican council in the 19 sixty's yoseph that singer set out to reinvigorate the church and restore it standing in people's lives. by the end of his time as pope he was confronted with a church in an utter moral crisis. d. i didn't listen into joan ups. he was not able to follow through with his actual intentions at our school to which were oriented towards goodness got salvation. god, gods loved the mankind. he began to sued, mentioned the leash to dora, thus happy, failed time and time again. said burger, and in that regard, one can speak of a tragedy. he did not actually achieve what he wanted to do, a package laden thus marcia awarded to her english niece deviced.

ringback ah, i sent me a donkey zach tuts when he told me what he planned to do. i was stunned. i should not be shipped and instinctively said, ski holy father, you can't do that. you can't resign that as like that i'm you to which he said no, the league i have thought about it for a long time. is he spit is better for the good of the church that i renounce the office of the substance east. ah,

the munchkin east, all sign of huston if you unfair from his understanding of the papacy, as well as his personal theology and his understanding of the world on the church. and this was a tremendous departure, ohio up come kind men can no man can resign from a higher function you than he did played us here. ringback ah ah he's clover dissention? oh, does shy tongue. i believe that his failure is also the failure of an era snows on

because it is not only his personal failure, so nasty, did shut up an error in did he kill rather it's the failure of an era in which the church is once again trying to preserve its strong friend versus foe coined us versus them identity via or d. it, he didn't, he tends to happen. how does an authoritarian institution change to become an institution that can deal with people on the level of equality and level to listen other than just command the only country were a popular referendum approved. i'm same sex married was ireland, which used to be catholic plus. and that had to have said something very clearly

loudly to the ruling structure of the catholic church. not just about but it in and rom as well. and i grew up as a young person. irish people were shipped to pope until it's a perfect example of that. when john paul came, it was extraordinary to response to his people, even catholic people, a much more challenging and much more questioning now than they were before. and this automatic adulation of pope's is gone. that's a mess of change in a generation. ah
