Kind, gentle and devoted to duty
The unremitting negative reporting concerning his handling of cases of paedophilia among a small number of priests does not do justice to his steadfastness to duty.
As a caring and responsible leader, it is clear that he finds this situation as abhorrent as it is distressing. The mild and gentle, if not reserved, disposition of our cardinal does not suit our media storymongers who manage to turn his sincere apologies into self- accusations.
