When I went home Thursday to get my car I saw in the paper that a priest in my hometown was removed from his post for molesting children. He was put there from Tulsa where he was accused of the same thing. And now the Vatican doesn't want to approve a U.S. plan for keeping accused priests from the parishiners. I can see the point where they are afraid that some priests might be falsely accused of abuse and maybe even defrocked for something they never did. But at the same time the Vatican is just sitting there praying and hoping this will all blow over. I don't see them doing anything about it. Not now and not in the foreseeable future either.
