Q: Do you think the church has adequately addressed the clergy sexual abuse crisis of recent years?
A: "I would like to think that we have addressed the immediate needs of the people because I feel the decisions we made were very clear and they helped. I think it's not just a problem of the Catholic Church . It's a problem of society. And I think as with any problem with society, we need to be watchful all the time. I think programs in the church are very solid and stable. ... As the Holy Father said, there is no room for this kind of abuse in Christendom."
