human
It looks like the Catholic Church is providing more ways to report misconduct, which is good.
gpt
I know, there has been several scandals I agree with the full investigation of retired Archbishop Theodore.
human
It's interesting that the church seems to admit that there is a sexual abuse crisis.
gpt
*squints eyes* Well they cant hide it anymore, there are just too many cases, I feel bad about all the rape victims and disgusted with Catholic Church.
human
*curls lip* I am disgusted too. They have been pretty lax with sanctions and have covered up too many cases.
gpt
*shakes head* Yeah and they just relocated the priests in other congregations where they raped more children, certainly has made me lost faith in church, such evil when they are supposed to protect us.
human
Previous victims seem to be happy with the third party complaint line. However, the USCCB does not have authority over the bishops. Hopefully complains will actually be listened to.
gpt
Hopefully because justice is deserved and no one should be above the law, aparently bishops are, there should be a law to sanction them.
human
*eyes downcast* Yes, it seems like Pope Francis does want to change this since there was a meeting about the sexual abuse crisis. They should not be above the law.
gpt
*raises eyebrows* I heard Pope Francis had some problems and they wanted to kick him out, I guess its because his putting order in the house.
human
*leans slightly forward* I am not Catholic but I have respect for him. I think he's trying to change a lot of things.
gpt
I agree, I respect him a lot, Im agnostic, so what do you think about the Ciolek abuse case in New Jersey?
human
I haven't been following it too much. What do you think about it?
gpt
*leans forward* I think that Ciolek is guilty for his alleged crimes and more, hopefully victims will get justice. 
human
Hmm, I have not heard of what crimes Ciolek was accused of. I only heard about the settlements he got for alleging abuse from New Jersey diosceses and also about how he was abused in high school.
gpt
I think I got confused,I was thinking of another case, I think cardinal McCarrick. 
human
It seems that Ciolek accused McCarrick of abuse, as did others.
gpt
*raises eyebrows* Yeah, seems that way, another famouse case is the one of DiNardo with the cover ups.
human
*eyes widen* Yes. DiNardo promised a woman that a priest would not work with children, but it seemed that he continued to be a parish priest for years.
gpt
Yeah seems that way, I heard about that promise too but im not sure what is the potential punishment.
