Sloppy use of language seems to be inherent among certain philosophical
groups. Personally, I think Roman Catholicism does man a great
disservice, however, to claim the Pope is a criminal is sheer blather. You
may call him immoral, unethical, ignorant, anachronistic, or even evil, if
you wish. But criminality requires transgression of a law, which seems to
be missing in this case.
And no, you can't count "unwritten crimes against the planet".
