Delegat of the Dutch Salesians Removed
Netherlands
Ultraliberal 73 years old Father Herman Spronck, the delegate of the Salesian delegation in the Netherlands, was removed from his position following the publication of comments in which he stated that “pedophile sex could be accepted.” Father Jos Claes [Klaas], the provincial of the Salesians in Belgium and the Netherlands said: “We fully distance ourselves from the words we find in the interview with Herman Spronck.” Father Spronck made his comments after a Dutch news agency discovered that another Dutch Salesian priest had served on the board of an organization that seeks to legalize pedophilia.

It's time to flush out the kumbahyah priests and bishops!More
Greetings Diona! 
Today, might it also be the Feast of Bede the Venerable (Beda Venerabilis)? I see that the old Kalendarium has him on the 25th May, but the 1962 version names him a Confessor and Doctor of the Church and puts him as a 'Double' on the 27th May; the post-Vatican II version has him as a commemoration on the 25th May.

That British scholar and monk of Wearmouth-Jarrow in Northumbria, UK, is rather important for the English Church (Roman Catholic that is...) and the English people. With his works, e.g. A History of the English Peoples, and A History of the English Church, we English get a vignette into our early Christian heritage so soon after St Gregory sent St Augustine to Canterbury in the sixth century to convert our ancestors- and how quickly the faith spread!
Disappointing not to have Bede mentioned or even included in the caption to the news broadcast today....
Thanks for the News Updates.

Delegate of the Dutch Salesians Removed
Netherlands
======================
The priest (Herman Spronck) is quoted as saying, We shouldn't consider age so rigidly. You should never break into the personal space of a child if the child does not want that, but that has to do with the child himself. There are also children who themselves indicate that it is okay. Sexual contact is then also possible. …More

That's not enough.
In a better time and place Herman Spronck would have been pilloried, tortured and burned not only because of his incredibly evil comments but as a clear message to others who may be inclined to make similar statements further embarrassing and humiliating the Church they claim to serve.
