Pope Francis Compares Paedophilia With ‘Human Sacrifice,’ Says Such Cases Will Be Treated With Utmost Seriousness
In the past disturbing claims of child abuse and sexual harassment of women by bishops inside Catholic Church have come to light. Most of these women who have come out have met with both supportive and dissenting voices. Yet, more and more such cases continue to come to limelight.
Earlier this month, A former Roman Catholic archbishop and cardinal was dismissed from the priesthood after the Vatican found him guilty of sexually abusing minors. 88-year-old Theodore McCarrick, who was one of the prominent figures of the church has been defrocked.
He will no longer be permitted to act as a cleric, and is forbidden to celebrate the sacraments except to grant absolution for sins to a person close to death. Pope Francis was personally involved with the judgement of this case and has termed this action as “definitive” which means that McCarrick will not be allowed to make an appeal.
