From TFA:

"Horseplay," a term used to denote child rape, is, says Pennsylvania Attorney General Josh Shapiro, part of a sinister glossary of euphemisms by which the Catholic Church's bureaucracy obfuscates in documents the church's "pattern of abuse" and conspiracy of silence "that goes all the way to the Vatican." "Benevolent bishops" are those who allow predatory priests, shuffled from other dioceses, to continue as priests.

This makes me sick. They need Interpol to flex up on the Vatican once and for all.
This is an editorialized and potentially misleading title (though the original title is quite bait-y so I understand the motivation).

Here is the relevant quotation

> "Horseplay," a term used to denote child rape, is ... part of a sinister glossary of euphemisms

I suggest a balanced title would be "Catholic Church uses euphemisms like 'Horseplay' to discuss child molestation".
