Later this month Pope Francis will arrive there for a couple of days, incorporating an onerous schedule of services, visits and appointments.

Most are waiting for his statements on his clergy's paedophile track record - and the RCC's refusal to release their records on the individuals.

In addition, the church's unacceptance of gays, same-sex marriage, contraception etc. - will be queried.

Is is fair and/or reasonable to exclude, from the RCC, those who practise what most of us do, in the modern world.

More importantly - is it Christian?


Demonstrations and anti-church events will vie for the eye of the international media!

But what is really wanted is confirmation of the abuse - with every assistance to bring the perpetrators to justice - and a seachange to bring the church into the modern world.

Breaths are not being held....

A US Grand Jury report forces the Catholic Church to come clean on 'thousands' of child abuse victims - by priests in Pennsylvania.

Why did they not do this themselves and hand the perpetrators into the authorities - instead of defending, denying and covering up?

Chile is next - then the outcomes of the cases against Cardinal Pell in Australia. A formal demand has been made by the Chilean authorities - to the church - for their records on the abuse cases there.

Chile awaits a response...

It's been now revealed that - out of the hundreds of paedophile priests in Philadelphia - only 2 were ever charged with a crime.

A very large can of worms has been opened - as the same happened in Washington, Boston, Ireland, Chile - and dozens of other countries.

Put simply, this cult/organisation saw itself as being outside the laws of any country - and entitled to be the judge of all crimes, by its depraved personnel.

But instead of handling them over to the authorities, the church lied - to defend them!


Now it would appears - the secret Jack in the Box has escaped, to tell his tales...
