John L. Allen Jr. describes in his weekly column how Pope Benedict's meeting with some sex abuse survivors came to happen.

In the following section ("Signifance"), Mr. Allen noted that "Benedict has set a new standard for candor." The pope squarely faced insitutional innertia--always a powerful force--and moved it despite that force.
