Pope Francis stated that changes needed to be made regarding the act and covering up of sexual abuse to children by some priests. He is putting full force into protecting minors from further cases occurring and punishing those priests who engaged in the sinful acts. Some victims groups, such as SNAP, are wary about the Pope's goal, they think it is too similar to the agenda of Pope Benedict, so nothing is really changing. I think that the current pope will make further revisions to his agenda as the weeks go on, this was just him opening up the issue, he has yet to state his further details and plan of action.
