Temp archbishop arrives to oversee Guam Catholics - USATODAY.com

Temp archbishop arrives to oversee Guam Catholics - USATODAY.com | Operation Phobos | Scoop.it

Mother whose son died in 2005 decided she had to come forward with her son's story about archbishop's abuse because she knew the first victim.

The Swarm's insight:

"If good does not accumulate, it is not enough to make a name for a man.  If evil does not accumulate, it is not strong enough to destroy a man.  Therefore the inferior man thinks to himself, 'Goodness in small things has no value,' and so neglects it.  He thinks, 'Small sins do no harm,' and so does not give them up.  Thus his sins accumulate until they can no longer be covered up, and his guilt becomes so great that it can no longer be wiped out."
