I encourage my Catholic FReeper friends to read the article, I think you will be surprised at how even handed it is with regard to Ratzinger.

Ah yes, the New York Times is so even-handed in general to begin with, of course.

It's even fairer to institutions that all of its employees despise.

It's interesting that a self-styled conservative would point to the umpteenth NYT hatchet job on the Pope as "even-handed."

Did you read the article and can you tell me what is factually incorrect? The focus is on the failure of the church to execute its laws not specifically on the Pope though he did play a part in the failure.
