In Spain, the church removes a small veil of pedophilia-liberation
by

The Company of Jesus, born in Spain with Ignatius of Loyola in the sixteenth century, began to shake the coconut from the strict Omerta about pedophilia in a religious context. In a country where the silence of the Church has always been eloquent on sensitive issues, one Church fully recognizes this phenomenon, and most importantly launches this message: Jesuits are certainly sexually abusing children. They plan to establish a protocol for financial and moral compensation.
“We should not focus on the defense of our institution, but on the recognition of the victims.”
