Two years ago the then cardinal in Edinburgh said he would not be attending the conclave in Rome in the wake of media allegations of sexual harassment of four priests by him in the 1980s.
Cardinal O'Brien was noted for his right wing views.
A sexual abuse lobbyist yesterday said he would be far more impressed if the Vatican were to take action against Kansas bishop Robert Finn, who has been convicted of failing to report a paedophile priest subsequently sentenced to 50 years in prison for producing child pornography.
Two weeks ago Bishop Finn called on the priests and religious in his diocese to join him to demonstrate in favour of the construction of a faith-based dormitory in Kansas City. He asked the priests and religious to turn up to the demonstration wearing their clerical attire.
Last Tuesday Kansas City Plan Commission unanimously voted against the construction.

And meanwhile the CDF is silencing good men and depriving them of their livelihoods, flying in the face of natural justice.
What a mess.
