« Il n'y pas d'autre option que la transparence totale » m'a confié Vogel. « Aucune autre. »
Il m'a donné l'impression claire qu'en toute conscience il ne pourrait jamais travailler pour une orgnisation qui lui demanderait d'étouffer les cas d'abus ; il semble donc raisonnable de conclure qu'il ne pense pas que la FSSPX l'ait fait jusqu'à présent. Étant donné ce que je sais de ce monsieur, je n'ai aucune raison de ne pas le croire, mais le processus de transparence va prendre un certain temps, comme le reconnaît la Fraternité.
“There is no option but total transparency,” Vogel told me. “None.”
He left me with the clear impression that he could never in good conscience work for an organization that wanted him to cover for abuse, so it seems reasonable to conclude that he doesn’t believe that they SSPX has done so thus far. Based on what I know of the man, I have no reason not to believe him, but the process of transparency is going to take time, as the Society has acknowledged.
But then, just as this latest debate looked as if it was finally about about to die down, Church Militant — with its well known history of anti-SSPX bias — threw gas on the fire. Church Militant issued an explosive report, detailing a number of allegations concerning sexual abuse and cover-up within the Society over the years.
(…) The author of the report, Christine Niles, claimed in a social media post related to her report that she had “no hostility” to the Society. Yet she made reference to “SSPX-zealots” in social media posts — where she is known for her combative style — and accused people questioning the tabloid-style approach to the issue of being “pedo-enablers.”
