Two world powers clash

The UN firecly criticises the Catholic Church over its handling of child sex abuse.

Victims' groups welcome the UN's abuse findings.

Negative tones of UN report takes Holy See by surprise.

This is what today's Irish newspapers are saying. It's also what the German papers are saying.

Will there be conversation/discussion on all of 'this' in priories, presbyteries, monasteries, bishops' houses in the days that follow?

How many bishops and provincials will sit down with their fellow priests and talk in opness and honesty, in charity too on the subject?

Will Catholics sit down and discuss it in calm and honesty? Will anyone ask why it all happened?

What at all is truth, honesty?
