My feeling is that IF he is personally innocent then he should be ruthless. Sack everyone involved in the cover up and start afresh. On the other hand if he was involved directly or indirectly as reports from Germany indicate , admission , resignation and pleading for forgiveness is the only option.

In the case of the Pope the accusations against him are his failure to act when he was a Cardinal and his dept. was informed of cases of abuse.
