Another Viganò Letter: McCarrick Should Publicly Repent
Cardinal Theodore McCarrick, 88, should publicly repent for homosexual abuses he is accused of, the famous whistle-blower, Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò wrote in an open letter to him on January 13.
He criticizes McCarrick for not having given any sign of repentance so far, expressing his belief that this would bring "healing" to a gravely wounded Church.
But Viganò is wrong, first because whatever the Church does against abuses - and it has done more than any other institution in this world - will never be enough for the oligarch media, and, second, because repentance makes sense only where there is forgiveness.
But the Francis Church knows no mercy for alleged abusers.
