I too would agree with Martin in that the Roamn Catholic Church didn't act appropiately, and it's not easy to just say 'this was many years ago, and we've learned a lot since then'.  Wasn't there a recent leak that showed the church was still doing its best in more recent times to cover up, and instructed it's staff to do so as well.

If there is unfounded condemnation, then fine, but when there is still an axe to grind it becomes harder to bring it under the same blanket!
