For the Emeritus Pope, the 1968 years of Benedict a cause for the sexual abuse of children in the Catholic Church. Belonged to “the physiognomy of the 1968 Revolution, that now pedophilia as allowed and as appropriate” was diagnosed.
the reason for the crisis in the Catholic Church, too, is an “impiety,” wrote Benedict in an essay, the other hand, the Catholic news network, the CNA published on Thursday.
Regardless of time would have been equal to “a collapse of the Catholic moral theology occurred, which made the Church vulnerable to the processes in the society”. . “Why pedophilia could reach such an extent?
