In addition, he asserted that the Vatican viewed American cultural attitudes toward sexuality as being somewhat hysterical as well as exhibiting a lack of understanding of the Catholic Church; No one thinks the sexual abuse of kids is unique to the States, but they do think that the reporting on it is uniquely American, fueled by anti-Catholicism and shyster lawyers hustling to tap the deep pockets of the church.
Štoviše, tvrdio je da je Vatikan američke kulturne stavove prema seksualnosti smatrao pomalo histeričnima, ali i takvima da pokazuju manjak razumijevanja za Katoličku crkvu; Nitko ne misli da je seksualno zlostavljanje djece jedinstveno za SAD, no oni misle da je izvješćivanje o tome tipično američko, pogonjeno antikatolicizmom i beskrupuloznim odvjetnicima koji se naguravaju radi posezanja u duboke džepove Crkve.
