Pope condemns child abuse



VATICAN CITY, February 8 (AP): Pope Benedict XVI is condemning the abuse of children by priests, saying the church will never stop deploring such behavior. Benedict says that for centuries the Catholic Church had shown its commitment to loving and respecting children and ensuring their basic human rights are respected. But he says, “Unfortunately in some cases, some of its members - acting in contrast to this commitment - have violated these rights, a behavior that the church hasn’t, and won’t ever stop deploring and condemning.”
