3. SOUNDBITE (Dutch) Nancy Speeckaert, Don Bosco leader:
"I think that it actually started with us pointing out that we felt that a stricter line was coming, such a strict line that for us, with a number of things, actually infringed on human rights. Things like no women, no more girls who are allowed to be altar servers. Those are things that I think yes, sorry, but we have gone past that stage a long time ago.”

6. SOUNDBITE (Dutch) Arne Stoffels, Don Bosco member:
"The institution of the (Catholic) church does not really evolve in that respect either. Where Jesus Christ actually wanted to do good for everyone, where Jesus Christ considered and accepted everyone as equal, we see that our church, on the contrary, gives a number of people certain tasks and powers and assignments.”

8. SOUNDBITE (Dutch) Bart Vanvolsem, Don Bosco member:
"And we also certainly want to go for the full integration of both women and men and the human rights that exist and apply all over the world. They sometimes do not apply to the church. With us, they do apply here, strictly speaking. Gender equality really does exist here and we are also very strongly committed to it and we hope that there will be room for that within the church as well."

“I still remember we wrote around the year 2000 that we had a lot of files — 84 — and I thought it was a lot. Now we are running up to 2,000, some 1,950 children that have been abused in this little speck of land."

12. SOUNDBITE (Dutch) Rik Deville, retired Don Bosco priest:
“The pope has been to so many countries where there was a lot of uproar because of the sexual abuse. Also consider his trips to Ireland, Canada or some other countries. Each time, here too, he will address the victims again, a pat on the back, we will pray for you carefully, a rosary as a gift and it will appear in the media. The pope listened to the victims. The pope gets on the plane. But the file will not develop and will certainly not progress due to that visit by the pope.”
