<\/a>The Pope is the leader of the largest single religious organization in the world. The Catholic Church prides itself of their strong faith in God, their Lord and Savior. Now that the Pope and the Church are in the middle of a worldwide scandal and literally a billion people are praying for them, I have to wonder if God will answer those prayers.<\/p>\n
This really is a test of the Pope\u2019s faith since he and the Vatican have all but ignored the actual scandal. Instead of being open to world authorities and inviting a comprehensive impartial investigation, the Vatican has closed their doors, doubled security, and blamed the media, gays, the devil, the Jews, and anyone else they could think of.<\/p>\n
On one hand they seem to have a tremendous amount of faith that all this will simply go away without them having to present an actual defense. On the other hand, they seem to have such little faith in that they have doubled their security and lashed out so strongly against everyone.<\/p>\n
Maybe they should just turn themselves in to world authorities, open their doors to a full investigation, and leave it in God\u2019s hands. They always talk about how God works through people, so let him work through the world authorities in open court in front of the entire world.<\/p>\n
They say God works in mysterious ways, but there is nothing mysterious about hiding from the law. The more the Church blames and attacks everyone else instead of addressing the real issues and being open to investigation the more they look like a gang of thugs and less like a shining example of God\u2019s love for the world. In fact they look more like a shining example of sexual love for under-aged children.
