Chicago Cardinal: Global Warming, Migrants Are ‘Bigger Agenda' than Sex Abuse
2018-08-29
[Breitbart] Cardinal Blase Cupich, the Archbishop of Chicago, has downplayed bombshell allegations that Pope Francis knowingly rehabilitated an abusive American cardinal, saying the pope has a "bigger agenda" to worry about, such as protecting the environment and migrants.

In a television interview with NBC News, Cardinal Cupich commented on a recent 11-page statement by Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò, former papal nuncio to the United States, that alleges a series of misdeeds by high-ranking Catholic prelates, including Pope Francis himself.

"The pope has a bigger agenda. He’s gotta get on with other things, of talking about the environment and protecting migrants and carrying on the work of the Church," Cardinal Cupich said.

"We’re not going to go down a rabbit hole on this," he added.

#8  In light of recent revelations, the phrase "carrying on the work of the church" doesn't sound good at all.'

Is the work of the church not to help those young men who have been abused by priests? And if not, why in the world not?

#7  I'd think a cardinal in the Catholic church might say such a thing and not come out with any big exposes' about pedophilia within the church.

#1  Look over here at this...no look over there at that. Sounds like a Bureaucrat with his fly open and just give him a little time to zip it up again and shuffle his papers.
