"Lauryn Hill took aim at the Catholic Church while playing a\nChristmas benefit concert at the Vatican&amp;apos;s Paul VI Auditorium on\nDecember 13th.\nIn the middle of her performance, Hill criticized priests who\nabuse children. &amp;quot;I realize some of you may be offended by what I&amp;apos;m\nsaying,&amp;quot; Hill said, according to Italian press reports, &amp;quot;but what\ndo you say to the families who were betrayed by the people in whom\nthey believed? . . . God has been a witness to the corruption of\nhis leadership, of the exploitation and abuses by the clergy.&amp;quot; Hill\nwent on to say that there was &amp;quot;no acceptable explanation for\ndefending the church.&amp;quot;\nThe Pope was not in attendance for the performance, though this\nmorning he spoke to an audience and said that Catholic priests must\nbe &amp;quot;confronted and corrected&amp;quot; for scandalous behaviour. Neither the\nVatican or Hill&amp;apos;s label, Columbia Records, commented specifically\non her tirade."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
