    Pope Francis asked Saturday for daily prayers to protect the Catholic Church from what he says are "attacks by the devil," in his latest response to the clerical sex abuse and cover-up scandal roiling his papacy. https://abcn.ws/2NPFKTy pic.twitter.com/4yUv9tPDMZ

        This isn’t the act of the devil this is the act of human beings sexually abusing children and they should be seen as criminals and dealt with accordingly, your church is a haven for pedophiles and criminal activity “TIMES UP” and so are the cover ups! Did the crime do the time!

        If people are going to pray, shouldn’t they be praying for the children abused by those catholic priests?

        I would replace the word "convenient" with "childish" or "absurd" or "deluded."

        If Clerical Sex Abuse is an Attack by the Devil, then I guess the Devil Had an Inside Man.

        The devil is the church: Lifelong celibacy+private access to children+blind parental faith+church protection, coverup, & denial = permanent rampant sex abuse

        Don’t think the church needs prayers Pope. I think the hundreds of kids that a molested by the church do. As for the church? Actions speak louder than the words you state and certainly the words of bishops who have spent years disgracefully covering up these crimes.

        Seems like he’s confused by what’s actually going on. Priests molesting minors and bishops who protect them from prosecution. So are both the priests and the bishops possessed by the devil. If so then clean house.
