Holy S***! Pope Francis's Word to Describe Priest Child Abusers
Holy S***! Pope Francis Uses Vulgar Word to Describe Priest Child Abusers
Clerical abuse of children “source of pain and shame” for me, says Pope Francis Irish Central, 27 Aug 2018. https://www.irishcentral.com/uploads...g?t=1535356895 Pope Francis at the Pro Cathedral on Saturday... During a private meeting with eight survivors of clerical sex abuse on Saturday, Pope Francis referred to those who cover up clerical sex abuse as excrement, or more precisely, “caca.” The official translator for the pope interpreted the Spanish word as “filth you would see in the toilet” but “****” or “excrement” would be a more accurate translation. “I’m sure the translator was trying not to be vulgar,” Junno Arocho Esteves, the Rome Correspondent of the Catholic News Service, said on Twitter, “but ‘filth as one sees in a toilet’ just doesn’t do the word ‘caca’ justice. For us Hispanics, ‘caca’ is one of several words that translates to ‘****.’” During the meeting, which lasted for an hour and a half and took place in the Papal Nuncio residence on Navan Road, Pope Francis met with survivors of clerical sex abuse and people who spent time in church-run industrial schools, seminaries and mother-and-baby-homes, The Irish Times reports. At the meeting, the pope was asked to use his influence to get the religious order who ran the mother-and-baby homes to “acknowledge their actions and issue an open and unqualified apology” to mothers and their children. “Very powerful meeting. He listened with a genuine interest,” Clodagh Malone, who was born in a mother-and-baby home and has campaigned for justice for the mothers who were forced to give up their children for adoption, told Reuters. Earlier in the day, the pope spoke publicly about abuse in the church, saying he could not “fail to acknowledge the grave scandal caused in Ireland by the abuse of young people by members of the Church charged with responsibility for their protection and education.” Quote:

Whoa.....I sure hope this don't turn out to be the pot calling the kettle black as the Pope is already being accused of covering up the issue himself.:uhh::hmm::confused:
