Church of England child sex abuse allegations 'marked by secrecy'
The Church of England's response to child sex abuse allegations was "marked by secrecy", a report has found.
Former Archbishop of Canterbury Lord George Carey has been criticised for supporting former Bishop Peter Ball.
The Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse (IICSA) said Ball "was able to sexually abuse vulnerable teenagers and young men for decades".
The IICSA described the "appalling sexual abuse against children" in the Diocese of Chichester, with 18 members of the clergy convicted of offences during a 50-year period.

Funny how an "all seeing, all knowing, loving god" didn't bother to stop any of it!

Never underestimate the power of very stupid people in large groups
Arguing with an engineer is like wrestling with a pig in mud ..... after a while you realise that the pig likes it!
