...your use of the phrase "the Church's penance still lies ahead” in the Crimson Staff editorial “Papal Penance” that was published on Apr. 8, 2010. Although doubtless you intended it to refer to the small proportion of clergy and laity complicit in acts both sinful and criminal, the Church is comprised of all baptized Catholics worldwide, and by implying that all these people have yet to receive penance for sexual abuse, you (however accidentally) slander the names of more than a billion people.
