The media has in the recent months reported on serious accusations against the church. Many are calling for the Pope and others to resign.
For example, Theodore Edgar McCarrick a former Cardinal resigned on July 28, 2018 after sexual misconduct allegations. On August 25, 2018 Archbishop Carlo Maria Vigano released a letter that Pope Francis removed sanctions against McCarick even though the Pope “knew from at least June 23, 2013 that McCarrick was a serial predator. He knew that he was a corrupt man, he covered for him to the bitter end.” Viganò wrote in the letter that Pope Francis and others who covered up McCarick’s behavior should resign.
Here is an excerpt from an article “The Pope probably should resign” Updated 4:12 AM ET, Wed August 29, 2018″ (https://www.cnn.com/2018/08/28/opinions/the-pope-probably-should-resign-filipovic/index.html; obtained on 8-29-2018) that ended the following way:
Is the US justice system in some ways complicit? And, if so, why? There does appear to be systemic flaws in both institutional systems (The Roman Catholic Church and US Justice System) that function in a manner often subservient to economics. Is this an example of a hierarchical institutional system (like the banking system in the US with the ascendance of cryptocurrency) that could be facing some type of demise in favor of more decentralized systems caused by apparent blatant abuse of power that in times past was covered up more easily due to lines of communication being less open and immediate?
