The Sorry Media Spectacle | National Catholic Reporter by MSW.  MGB: Irregardless of any connection with sexual abuse, there can be no argument that the history of Catholic sexual teaching has a deep undercurrent of misogyny - an undercurrent that can no longer be maintained in our culture.  The next generation of clergy and faithful will call for change and it will come (and the Church will, of course, justify why it was true all along - since that is what hierarchical institutions do).  Now that we know who is elected Pope, I stand by my contention that his conservatism will simply lead to the creation of multiple independent patriarchies in the west.  He will also be denuding the Vatican of some of its art in order to repay the victims of pedophilia.
