please tell me and tell everyone else reading this exactly what steps the Catholic Church could take in the child abuse scandal that would satisfy you.

In other words what actions could my church take - today - that would make you think more highly of it and not with "disdain" as you put it.

Be honest. Is there anything they could do? Please stick strictly to the child abuse scandal and not church teachings, dogmas, traditions, etc that you do not agree with.

Because many people use the child abuse scandal (horrible as it was) to bludgeon the church with, please let us all know the concrete steps the Catholic church should take to meet your personal approval on this issue.

I eagerly await your answer.
