LA's Cardinal Roger Mahony said again today that apologies are not enough for the -incalculable harm- done by pedophiles in the Catholic clergy. He promised, -I will do all in my power to prevent sexual abuse by anyone serving our archdiocese now and in the future.- With that, he released a list of 244 Los Angeles priests, deacons, brothers and seminarians accused of molesting 656 minor children since 1931.
