What foolish notion is this? - is it any wonder our children are confused.

SPEERS: Just quickly Prime Minister your meeting the Pope today. The apology issue, the victims of sex abuse within the church. How important is an apology from the Pope in your view?

PM: This is a matter for the church and I respect the internal judgements of the church. I don’t stand outside the church and provide them with public lectures in terms of how they should behave. I’ve noted carefully what his Holiness has said in the United States. Obviously that was a source of great comfort and healing in the United States. I’m like all Australians very much looking forward to what the Pope has to say here in Australia as well, as I am to my own conversation with the Pope later this morning.

This is a matter for the church and I respect the internal judgements of the church.

[This is a matter of sexual abuse, sexual abuses committed by Catholic priests are not different than sexual abuses committed by other Australians. These are matters ].

I don’t stand outside the church and provide them with public lectures in terms of how they should behave.

[However he goes on to comment.]

I’ve noted carefully what his Holiness has said in the United States.

[The Pope referred to the facts that the Church had mishandled the clergy abuse issue and that justice must be provided to the victims of these abuses.]

Obviously that was a source of great comfort and healing in the United States.

[Mr Rudd identifies himself with victims in this statement. Statements such as these simply show that that is not plausible.]
