Analysis: Bishops' accountability still missing from abuse scandal
Analysis: Bishops' accountability still missing from abuse scandal This can really only be enforced by the Papal Nuncio. Frankly, I like his track record of imposing reform on the Curia, or at least trying to. I hope he brings the same spirit in dealing with bishops who ignore their obligations to protect children or who ignore their responsibility to remain neutral in this year's election cycle - especially those on the right who carry on the fraud that Catholic politicians actually have the ability to impact abortion law - other than offering a bill in the US Congress to set the start of human life earlier in the pregnancy - but with the necessary exemptions to deal with equal protection issues. Of course, the latter is impossible if no responsible bill is actually written.
