This Bengali-language article of Jerome D'Costa mentions some of the recent Vatican scandals and how Pope Francis is trying to bring about reforms in the Catholic Church. It also speaks of how the Church hierarchy -- in contrast to Christ's teaching and examples on humility, poverty, and simplicity -- gradually turned into a powerful, pompous, privileged, judgmental, condemning, and punishing group, which Pope Francis is trying to change. It also speaks of scandals and sins that are not new, but started with the fallen angels and Adam and Eve and continued both in the Old and New Testaments of the Bible and throughout the existence of the Catholic Church. The article also suggests some actions for the lay men and women (whom God created first and the hierarchy came into existence much later to serve them spiritually), to make the Church more pastoral, merciful, and empathetic.
