An Afterthought

So, the Easter weekend has passed, and - shockingly to some - the Pope has not addressed the abuse scandal in the Catholic in any homily. Seriously? The more I saw over the weekend from Rome, the more I started wondering what exactly those waiting for a comment really want him to say...because, this is getting ridiculous. No, it does not make it right, and less awful a crisis and crime - but what is people's center of attention? And even if he said something - it would be wrong anyway... so far, I have not seen anyone putting exactly forward what they want him to say.
Instead, Sunday's Urbi et Orbi Message contained references to, amongst others, the crises in Congo, in the Middle East, in Haiti, in Chile and speaking words of comfort to those affected by tragedies there - but, because, there was no reference to the abuse scandal, the homilies were "disappointing"? I am simply struggling with this view of the world - only because you have been wronged and are hurting extremely - which I am not dismissing nor diminishing - the world cannot suddenly in a Copernican Revolution start revolving around you...
