Truth in a comment by a bishop is a rare and beautiful thing.  His remarks below are important truths. 
"Long told the commission that ordained ministers have too much power in the church and too little accountability. The hierarchal culture of the institution needs to be dismantled" "increase the power of the laity and decrease the power of clergy"

Unfortunately, his courageous revelation about being sexually abused will cause him only more pain inflicted on him by his brother bishops.
I fear that he will be punished for his moderate views and his knowledgeable solutions to serious church problems.

I wish him the best!

I am sickened by the other Australian bishops who are claiming to be shocked by the high numbers revealed.  They have known all along about the extent of victims, they know there are many more that will never come forward or who have already ended their own lives.
