I saw people on TV calling for him to resign. Unless the Pope gets involved, I don’t see that happening. IIRC, he’s pretty close to retirement anyway.

If ANY of these perpetrators ("priests") now remain in the ordained clergy of the RCC--
If even ONE of these... has been hidden, transferred, or otherwise squirrelled away to cover up these sins of abuse... it remains a travesty of sins and lies...
These men are disqualified from the calling to ministry and should be permanently de-frocked... (and then arrested... and then drawn/quartered... then hung from the yard-arm... JMHO...)
There is no excuse for this level of abuse IN THE CHURCH!!
But worst yet.. the lies, the cover-ups, the manipulation of victims and their parents/caregivers... the parish transfers... or "staff relocations"....
All these "in-house" tactics!!! -- These same deeds have subsequently disqualify the bishops and archbishops who enabled these predators and facilitated these lies...
They should all resign... for the sake of the cause of Christ -- upon whose wonderful and holy Name they have brought despicable reproach...
May God indeed have great and compassionate mercy on the victims... and their families...
May the perps know that not one single perverse moment of their "ministry" will escape the judgment seat of Christ...

Jesus said clearly... (Matthew 18:6-7 NKJV)
“Whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to sin, it would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were drowned in the depth of the sea.
Woe to the world because of offenses! For offenses must come, but woe to that man by whom the offense comes!

I trust the pastor of Rome and his leadership infrastructure (at ALL levels in ALL nations) will clean the house-
Once for all...
And put an end to this plague of immorality...
It is waaaaaay past time!
God please send revival and renewal to your people worldwide!
