A year of milestones and scandals

This closing year has been a year of scandals all over the world. There were the sex scandals in the Roman Catholic church. The Roman Catholic church has started to 'clean its own house' and to show that, despite the sins of the 'higher clergy', “the gates of hell shall never prevail against it” (Matthew 16:17-19). In his Christmas message to the Roman curia, Pope Francis stated, “Some have not concealed their glee that the church has been hard hit.”
