The concept expressed so well by Fr. Morrissey is admirable.  The problem should be obvious however.   In their efforts to avoid accountability, the bishops have pretty much already blocked most of the avenues that might have otherwise been used.  Confidentiality statements with legal repercussions, games wherein victims can get help, but only AFTER signing away rights to bring suit, etc...  the bishops and their attorneys have pretty much already poisoned those  avenues.  So how does a victim come forth today believing a bishop who says what he/she may say will be held in confidence, or that he (the bishop) "gets it."   

The longer the time wherein church leadership refuses to accept accountability, the harder it will be for church leaders to be  real parts of those healing circles.  It wasn't the victims who reduced the scandal to courtrooms, briefs and motions.

As individuals, we DO have that power to set others free, when allowed.   Bishops have something to do first...
