Resignation?!? How about jail!!!

Great, is he going to trial?

Papa Francesco....il Signore ti appoggia...valoroso combattente di fede

This is incredibly disgusting every year what's going on in the Catholic Church

I hate it when I read 'Pope accepted the resignation of a priest for sexual misconduct with a minor' These people should be REJECTED, FIRED and put in jail. Victims must feel so worthless when reading such a thing. Church couldn't be more hypocritical. CatholicChurch 🖕🏽🤬

'Try to be serious.' - Mirabai

Conspicuously, the Church is focusing its 'internal investigation' on 'stale claims,' even publicly 'reprimanding' bishops that are (ahem) 'now deceased.'

Resignation? Where’s the indictment?!!!!!!

Finally.

Needs electric chair
