Priest defends medical team in surgical scandal (4:50 p.m.)
MANILA -- A church official on Wednesday rushed to the side of the doctors and nurses involved in the surgery scandal in Cebu City.
Monsignor Achilles Dakay, spokesman of the archdiocese of Cebu, said the scandal that happened at the Vicente Sotto Memorial Medical Center (VSMMC) should not be blamed solely on the doctors and nurses but it should be the person responsible for the indecent incident.
“They seem to forget the whole thing. They are blaming the doctors for what they do but I think they should blame the guy for what he did,†Dakay said.
He also admitted that the incident also indicated the weakening moral guidance among the Cebuanos and the spreading homosexuality in the province.
“We would like to feel sorry for what’s happening here and maybe we could be partly to be blamed for it,†he lamented.
The prelate said the Catholic Church sympathized with the homosexuals because they did not choose to be that, but committing homosexual acts would be “another thingâ€. (MSN/Sunnex)
