@DrSamuelGregg@RealClearRelig@LawLiberty Sam, between 1950 and 2020 at least 216,000 children were sexually abused in France by 2,900-3,200 clergy. How many of these monsters did B16 - a company man - report to civic authorities over the course of his career? Me wonders. B.
@DrSamuelGregg@PublicDiscourse Sam - the Faith wilts further still on account of Clerical abuse - it ain't going away - and one would not need more than one hand to count how many cases Ratzinger referred to secular authorities when he was Prefect.
This new Bruckner 8 from Thielemann bores me. Alas, everything reeks of earnestness and not much more. No tension is evident. Nothing accrues in an accumulative sense to send one into orbit. It fails to make the transition from concert hall to eschatology.

@patrickswanson Mate, they are not for me. If they speak to you, good stuff. Truth to tell, I have never been able to listen to Das Lied for even two minutes.
