The NYT spoke with Catholic priests/cardinals who stated even they had trouble communicating with the Vatican in attempts to resolve differing issues, including the sexual abuse stuff.

Now that's just odd. Why would they bother the Vatican with their troubles? Each diocese is a different entity that operates with relative autonomy and makes their own decisions about the hiring and firing of personnel.. They're supposed to be operating on their own! Why are they acting like college kids calling Mom and Dad for emergency money?
