Light from the Bible on contemporary scandals

Rev. Robert Barron, "Reading the Scandal With Biblical Eyes" (Our Sunday Visitor, April 29, 2010), offers three points, biblically-grounded and well articulated:

First, we should not be surprised that people behave badly. Second, the Church has enemies. Third, God regularly -- and sometimes harshly -- chastises his people in order to cleanse them.
