Will any of you be turning out to greet the Pope?

Feel free to talk about anything that you want.

GR - I agree.

But the Pope maybe chose Cyprus because he is probably having difficulty finding countries to visit where new 'sex scandals' involving the RC priesthood are not coming to light.

Germany wouldn't be a good choice at the mo for a Friday arrival!

Or Brazil:

The authorities in Rio de Janeiro said Sunday that they had arrested a Polish priest and charged him with sexually abusing a 16-year-old former altar boy.

The judge who issued the arrest warrant said the priest, Father Marcin Michael Strachanowski, 44, had used his parish’s rectory as an “erotic dungeon” to carry out sex acts with boys.

The police in Rio de Janeiro State said that Father Strachanowski, who was arrested late Friday, was being held at a police station awaiting court proceedings. He is accused of handcuffing the 16-year-old to a bed “to satisfy his sexual whims,” according to state prosecutors.

It is the third case of sexual abuse involving a priest in Brazil, which has the world’s biggest Roman Catholic population, in the last two months.
