Once again, we have words from a pope, pointing out that the "sins" wee by "some of her members," and the church seeks forgiveness.  All too sadly however, those words once again, ring hollow, for they are spoken against a backdrop of not addressing the enablers.  The case of Francis bothers me in some ways more than his two predecessors, for the man has made bigger gestures, and offered dibs and dabs of hope, only to let it melt away.  That Commission that was to do so much, and would most certainly speak to accountability, is reduced to providing "guidelines" for bishops and countries.  Can it be that there a bishops left in the world who still don't know that this stuff is bad, that it's soul killing, and evil?  The obvious question then must be why are they still bishops (or why were they EVER bishops?)

So much hope.  So many words.  So little action.
