The Vatican (tries) to put scandal in a very different light - !!!! (Main Forum)

by desi @, Australia, Wednesday, May 30, 2012, 13:26 (356 days ago) @ James

"We aren't afraid of the problems, the difficulties and also the errors and guilt that might come out," Cardinal Lombardi told reporters Tuesday.



Now I don't remember him saying that about the very prompt Investigation which the Pope set up into the Vatican's involvement in the CSA scandal and any cover-up.


Perhaps that could be because he didn't/hasn't ever ordered one. :angry:

And some more 'Lombardi spin'.

"We are trying to do the right thing, following a difficult path of truth and taking the necessary measures to re-establish the trust and good functioning of the governance of the church and its institutions."

He said it certainly was a "difficult test" for the pope and his aides but that he hoped that the problems would be identified so that the Vatican can "enjoy the trust of the people God, which the pope certainly merits and we his collaborators must try to support."


Cringeworthy stuff!
