Pope Francis says Vatican administration is sick with power and greed
Vatican City: The Vatican's top administrators would have been expecting an exchange of pleasantries at their annual Christmas meeting with Pope Francis on Monday.
Instead, Francis chose the occasion to issue a stinging critique, telling the priests, bishops and cardinals who run the Curia, the central administration of the Roman Catholic Church, that careerism, scheming and greed had infected them with "spiritual Alzheimer's".

Pope Francis is right of course, good for him, but for once let's not get into that done to death topic of paedophiles as the Catholic church is no way the only religious organisations responsible. I just hope Pope Francis makes some drastic cost cuts like driving in the best cars, drinking expensive wine and brandy and so on. He's got his work cut out.
