Maybe I can’t find anything on this particular topic, because it’s just a rumor. But surely you news-buffs would be up on this.
Someone in my family was slamming the Magesterium for the lack of dealing with the pedophelia priests, and said that the Cardinals presented some sort of legislation for the Pope (John Paul II ? ) to sign that would punish the priests, but he refused to sign it. That’s what I got 3rd hand. I wasn’t there for this conversation.
Anyways, maybe something like that occured… to which I think “there’s plenty of seemingly good laws that the governors and Presidents over history have vetoed or refused to support for what they deemed worthy reasons to not support the bills.” Myself, not being up on Papal Politics and Discipline, I’m not gonna rashly judge the Pope on something I know absolutely nothing about.
So, trying to learn about it, the only thing I came across was this disciplinary document dated back in 1962 called “Crimine Solicitationis” and I’ve got the link to it here. It’s from an anti-Catholic website, but I’ll give it the benefit of doubt. Anyways, from what I’ve read of it, it looks like pretty good policy for dealing with such things. But I haven’t read it all, my opinion may change. Anyways, that’s not what they were talking about, so it really doesn’t help much.
** So, anybody know anything about the “Crimine Solicitationis” or more importantly this alleged “legislation” the Pope (JP2) didn’t sign?** I’m gonna get back to the source family member, and ask for some credible information, and I intend to be like a good lawyer, and already know the answer to my questions.
