  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

The authorities cleared him... the contents of an investigation often involves private information that is confidential under law, so it will not be published for the public eye. If he was cleared by the German investigators, it is reasonable to say that nothing came up on him.

A while back, there were some here who claimed that Archbishop Zollitsch was involved in covering an abusive priest; he has been cleared of charges after an investigation by authorities.

That's the good thing about the modern judicial system. Plenty of checks and balances to ensure that the innocent are not wrongfully convicted.

Happily though, there are hundreds of pedophile priests and bishops in jails all around the world, still serving time for their awful crimes - as they should.
