Hiding one's crimes under a bushel basket

| No Comments

Deidre Mundy of the Mommy Writes blog (aka Mouse at American Papist) offers some trenchant commentary about the latest scandal surrounding Marcial Maciel and the Legion of Christ's handling of the situation. Particularly poignant is her following observation:

This is another place where the Legion is falling short. When faced with the evidence of Maciel's crimes, they're NOT providing a countersign. They're not reaching out to the victims or engaging in public penance. Instead of shining a floodlight to illuminate the darkness, they're trying to hide the crimes under a bushel basket.
