In a church with thousands of rules, no new rules are needed to fire officials who enable child sex crimes. Every single catholic prelate on earth has plenty of power, right now, to demote, discipline, denounce, and defrock, clerics who conceal crimes.
With sexual violence and cover ups, catholic officials are obsessively fixed on policies and protocols. But they absolutely ignore the one step that
matters: Actions.
We will believe in the discipline of bad bishops when we see it actually happen.
