And thus, as discussed above, we see the deflection and victim playing.  A script drafted by Cardinal Law, and widely used under the reign of the Saint Pope John Paul II.   Defend the indefensible, when called out for defending child abuse, deflect, debate terminology, and in the end, whine that one is being attacked.  Now some might say that a person who defends child abusing priests is opening one's self to criticism, "personal attacks" if one prefers.  But we True Catholics would never take that position, because that would imply that The Saint, his predecessor, his successors, and virtually every cardinal of the 20th century was subject to such criticism.  And that would imply they were no more Holy Men of God than the average tree shrew.  Apologies to tree shrews, of course.
