"Pope 'deeply disturbed' over abuse by Irish clergy"
http://www.cnn.com/2009/WORLD/europe/12/11/vatican.ireland.child.abuse/index.html
After decades of child abuse were discovered to have taken place in the clergy of the Irish Catholic Church, Pope Benedict is expressing his regret and deep disturbance over the issue. All i have to say is, I sure hope he would be disturbed! What else would he say, good for them? Can I join in next? Snarky response to this article I know, but I'd rather here about what he and the rest of the church will do to prevent future occurrences of child abuse. Sometimes news reports seem a bit ridiculous to me. Yes, it's important to get the word out that the Pope is acknowledging the event's horrible nature, but really I'm looking for some action, which isn't addressed until the very end of the article.We have to stop treating the pope and our other officials like celebrities and start covering at a more in-depth level the parts of these stories that really matter.
