New figures show there were 29 mob attacks on Indian Christians in January.

Pope Francis will not visit Uganda in July, President Yoweri Museveni has confirmed.

John Allen suggests that “the people in the Vatican most inclined to welcome Pell’s conviction aren’t really reformers on sexual abuse” (George Weigel).

Rocco Palmo explains why today’s abuse crisis is “exponentially different” from the crisis of 2002.
