If you actually read the report, it is nothing more than a "hit piece". It essentially recommends that the Catholic Church give up virtually all of its core beliefs, restructure itself into something very different than the church, and that it become essentially a lay organization.
The Church is cleaning up the molestation/abuse problem. As it stands now, if a priest or religious has any claim made against them of inappropriate conduct, they are suspended from their duties, the police are notified, and the investigation begins.
We have a Priest in our Diocese that had this happen. The day the accusation was made it was sent to the local police department, and he was suspended from any form of ministry. His name was made public, and a request was made that if anyone had any information concerning the possibility of inappropriate conduct, to please let both the Diocese and the police know about it immediately.
The police cleared him, declining to even arrest him, much less prosecute him. BUT, he remains suspended from all Priestly duties, until the Diocese finishes its own investigation,
His name has been sullied, and he will likely never be accepted in any Parish again.
I would strongly recommend that people look into just who is behind that UN report, and what countries approved it.
