Pope Francis has delivered several speeches asking for understanding from those who were wronged by the Church in the past and tried to make the Vatican hierarchy more accessible to the masses.

Msgr. Ramirez Should Return PDAF Money

I may not agree on his stand with regards to the Reproductive Health Law, but I will be the first to concede that Archbishop Emeritus Oscar Cruz has a valid point when he asked members of the clergy to return the donations when the source of fund is doubtful.

The senior bishop raised this point in an interview with reporters last 25 May 2014 after alleged pork barrel scam operator Janet Lim-Napoles was accused of giving generous donations using money allegedly stolen from the congressional Priority Development Assistance Fund (PDAF).
