Pope Francis appeared to strongly defend a Chilean bishop accused of covering up a priest’s sexual abuse of young boys just days after meeting and weeping with survivors.

“The day they bring me proof against Bishop [Juan] Barros, then I will speak,” Francis said when a journalist asked about the 61-year-old bishop, appointed by him in 2015, despite the cover up accusations. “There is not a single piece of proof against him. This calumny [or slander]. Is this clear?”

Hmmmm, I wonder if he expects photos, videos or what exactly would qualify as 'proof.' Stellar week for good ol' Francis!

Really, do specify what type of 'proof' you think these folks should be able to come up with. Videos from inside the confessional, photos taken by others in the room at the time, what?!?!

This will now give free reign to all of the pervert clergy out there, 'cause padre Francis said so.

Yep, because the vatican has never molested kids or anything... no record of that whatsoever.

Any Trump supporter who remains in a Catholic church under the Roman Catholic banner with this Pope is a cuck and is supporting what we are purported to be fighting against.

This Pope is a Globalist, so of course he's a pedo.


I hear that since coming to Italy he's become really fond of "pizza parties".

The claim is that the bishop covered for the priest who committed the crime!

This doesn't mean they are saying the priest did nothing. I think the Pope is saying he wants to see proof of a coverup...not proof of the abuse..

I loathe this pope! He does not speak in true values of our Catholic beliefs.

Time to remove his sorry arse

O’Reilly accused of sexual abuse= WE NEED PROOF!!!!!

Pope asks for proof a bishop covered up pedophilia= HE’S A HERETIC PEDO!!!!!!

Way to be some hypocrites. Isn’t hanging someone on allegations alone exactly what the Dems do?

There's proof of widespread molestation among Catholic priests.

For frick sake, that's literally why 80% of them entered the clergy! Open your eyes, mate
