Did the Church ever make "restitution" for that? Then, as the mass murderers fled, the Holy Mother Church took them in and helped them get passports for South America. Didn't it take, like forever, for an "apology" or even acknowledgment? Why is the truth of the fondling of (mostly) white boys more significant? Worth millions in restitution? I feel sorry for the altar boys, yet I don't get that girls and women are raped and fondled every day, and people such as Malcolm Gladwell in the New Yorker still say we're making too big a deal out of it. It doesn't really cause long-term harm. We should get over it. Where are our millions in restitution? Where are our apologies? Oh, our rapists were just trusted family friends rather than frocked and trusted. We can't join a class action and get a check in the mail.
