A group representing victims of abuse by Catholic clergy called yesterday for the Archbishop of Dublin to be made Pope. The Survivors Network for those Abused by Priests (SNAP) endorsed Archbishop Diarmuid Martin — even though he is not a Cardinal.
SNAP, the largest victims group, put him on its “most promising candidates” list alongside Cardinal Luis Antonio Tagle of the Philippines and Christoph Schoenborn of Austria. All 115 voting Cardinals have now arrived in Rome, making it possible for them to decide the date of the conclave to select the next pope.
