	Pursuing Cover up Bishops Has to Be Part of Justice, Otherwise We Have Relativism National Survivor Advocates Coalition April 18, 2010 http://www.nsacoalition.org/ The National Survivor Advocates Coalition (NSAC) said today that "Pope Benedict's road to justice for survivors and victims of sexual abuse by priests and nuns must include dealing with the Bishops and Vatican officials who shielded priest abusers not just the abusers themselves." "An institution with the depth of 2,000 years of history seeking to be the moral leader on the earth has to squarely face that the cover up of crimes is also a severe and festering wound in the Church. "Tears, yes, words, yes but solid and convincing action that is uniquely within the Pope's purview is what is needed. Remove the bishops and Vatican hierarchy that covered up. Otherwise what we have is creeping relativism, the very thing Pope Benedict preached against on the eve of his election to the papacy five years ago." The Pope's tears in his eyes at Malta should surely lead him to addressing the victims in his own country. For the German victims there has been absolute silence from him."
