The Catholic League took out a full page add in the New York Times to dispute the assertion that the Vatican has been complicit in covering up the pedophile priests recently in the news. Even though there is a paper trail a mile long that directly implicates the Vatican and even Pope Benedict in the cover-up, they try to deflect the issue by calling the crisis one of homosexuality not pedophilia.
Again the Catholic Church is trying to avoid the elephant in the room. Pedophile priests who were enabled by the church through reassignment and cover-ups. Some day this organization will actually take a cold hard look at their problems and take steps to fix them, but apparently not under this Pope.
The twisted logic used in the Catholic League's ad is ridiculous but I have come to expect that from this bunch. They are trotting out the old lie that pedophilia is strictly a homosexual thing and using that to side step the real problem, accountability and honesty. \
Last time I checked, wasn't LYING was a sin?
