It is a step in the right direction to see the church answering questions to the United Nations. But it is also mind boggling that the church is in the dock on such an issue as child sexual abuse.
It is the same church that has led people to believe that it knew God's 'mind' on everything to do with every aspect of human sexuality.
And here it is attempting to answer the indefensible. It really is extraordinary.
And these same people continue to tell the world what exactly God's 'mind' is in all matters of human sexual behaviour.
Bishops and congregational superiors say they were not aware of the damage that was being done.
Confusing. Annoying too.
