Pope Benedict XVI has signed a pastoral letter about Ireland's abusive priests. Ireland has been striving to earn respect after a downfall when revelation of abusive priests. This wasnt the first case, in 1986, Peter Hullermann was convicted of minor abuse, afterwards, he was taken off of his position as priest. Over 12 countries are allegating of this. People in Asia and Africa, where Catholicism is growing, is said that wont have this impact. This crisis could make people leave this religion.
We think its good that the Pope is banning priests who do such things. We also think that its bad that they abuse. We think that its sad that people who inspire others are abusive, and bad. Last of all, we think that those priests must be really evil, mad, and that they don't have shame, because they made an oath to be good, and clearly they aren't. In conclusion, we think its bad to know that the world is being so bad, when God made us to be good.
