Pope defends gay rapist priests in S. America

Bishops Ramos Pérez (L) and González Errázuriz have held three days of crisis talks.
 
All Chile's 34 bishops offer resignation to Pope over child sex abuse scandals
I love children and this Holy Roman Church!
All of Chile's 34 Roman Catholic bishops have offered Pope Francis their resignations in the wake of a child [rape] scandal and cover-up.

They asked forgiveness [for their "sins"] from victims and the Church for their "grave errors and omissions."
 
I thought we had a deal? - We do!
It was not immediately clear whether the Pope had accepted the resignations.

The upset centers on Bishop Juan Barros [pictured at left], who is accused of using his position in the Catholic Church to try to block an investigation into his mentor, Catholic Priest Fernando Karadima.

[Gay hypocrite] Fr. Karadima was an influential priest who was found guilty by the Vatican of sexually abusing young boys in the 1970s and 80s.
 
Guilty? - "Who am I to judge," Don?
He was "sentenced" to a [comfortable life in a Catholic villa, spa, retreat center for a] lifetime of "penance and prayer" [and rest, relaxation, masturbation, and some more boys if he could sneak them in].

He never faced criminal prosecution in Chile as too much time had passed, but the judge who heard victims' testimony in a year-long investigation described them as "truthful and reliable."

Pope Francis appointed Bishop Barros three years ago despite the [criminal] cover-up allegations. He is not accused of carrying out abuse himself. More
