Sexual Abuse: Ex Pope Blames General Collapse in Morality for Church Scandal

Admin April 11, 2019

Pope Benedict XVI

Former Pope Benedict XVI has blamed the Catholic Church’s sexual abuse scandal on the effects of the sexual revolution of the 1960s and a general collapse in morality.

The 91-year-old Benedict, who in 2013 became the first pope in six centuries to resign, also bemoaned in a rare essay that some Catholic seminaries had an openly gay culture and thus failed to train priests properly.
