Pope takes back earlier statement: takes partial blame

So here is an interesting article that quotes the pope changing his stance on the pedophilia cases on his way to Spain. He had previously blamed media and bishops of the church for the scandal but in this article, sand I find this interesting, he is actually saying the church has been its own downfall, never giving justice to those who need it.Its scandals and secret pedo's have dug themselves this hole. It is still not surprising though to read further that he isn't doing more than accepting the resignations of a few bishops and clerics. He is doing the bare minimum, past due that is required for the actions of his people. Also at the end the pope mentions people not thinking about the ramifications of hum life in regards to abortion, and this is completely out of the blue (it was made legal there in 2007) and just not founded on his part. Of course they've considered it...
