text: There are no "two faces" or charades going on here. The Pope has been advocating for social justice for the poor, migrants and refugees since he was a Cardinal and Archbishop in Argentina. Your entire argument here is built on a fallacy and a single issue mindset. 
  
  The failure of the Catholic Church to deal with the sexual abuse crisis does not mean the Pope can't and shouldn't speak up on other issues happening across the world. He is a world leader. He's a head of state. The Church is located on every continent on the planet and the refugee crisis affects many Christians in the global south like South Sudan. 
  
  What your argument amounts to is saying that because the Catholic Church failed to deal with the sex abuse scandal, therefore it should stop helping refugees. Where did the topic of sexual abuse even come from anyways when this article and the Pope's initiative is about helping refugees dying from Syria, Libya and South Sudan?
