Shorter Pope Ratzi: "My faith allows me to continue to protect pedophiles in my ranks"

Yesterday was Palm Sunday, but at the Vatican, a narcissistic Pope decided that instead of this season being about the tribulations of Jesus, it's really about his own:

While he did not directly mention the scandal involving sexual abuse of children by priests, parts of his sermon could be applicable to the crisis.

The pontiff said faith in God helps lead one “towards the courage of not allowing oneself to be intimidated by the petty gossip of dominant opinion.”

He also spoke of how man can sometimes “fall to the lowest, vulgar levels” and “sink into the swamp of sin and dishonesty.”

One prayer asked God to help “the young and those who work to educate and protect them,” which Vatican Radio said was intended to “sum up the feelings of the Church at this difficult time when it confronts the plague of pedophilia.”

So the children who are, and why have in the past been, preyed upon by priests were told yesterday to just pray for the protection of God (who's also supposed to protect the ones who go after them). Because this Pope sure as hell isn't going to do anything to help them.
