That's why the Church does not want media attention. They may not always be the best people to look for the truth but at least they can put pressure on the authorities to pursue the truth. And they claim that they just want to protect the accusers! Get real! They want to protect their asses!
If they truly care for the abused, they should teach their priests not to play with other people's genitals!
Last, I couldn't resist. haha...
Anyway, no, that's not what Tagle's statement is all about. Before one puts pressure on the authorities there must be evidence. You cannot just go around and say put this guy to jail because someone accused him of this. There are already cases that some where just falsely accusing somebody. And I really have to go. Unya na ta mag tiwas. Let's stick to the Tagle issue, everyone.
