Protesters hold placards during a rally calling for the resignation of Pope Benedict XVI. Archbishop of Westminster Vincent Nichols -- the leader of Catholics in England and Wales -- has said there is "no strong reason" for the pope to resign over Church abuse scandals, as protesters gathered in London to urge the pontiff to quit.
Pope Benedict, facing one of the gravest crises of his pontificate as a sexual abuse scandal sweeps the Church, indicated on Sunday that his faith would give him the courage not to be intimidated by critics.
