I think you're too hung up on the political culture wars than the actual religion.
It's clear there's a bipartisan agreement that nobody likes pedophiles. However, our culture war tend to make us think all the pedophiles exist only on the 'other' side! Never on our side. To you, Catholic church is all about taking advantage of altar boys! To the Q believers, they believe all democrats are doing the same!
At least the Jesus I know isn't about just covering up sinners and pretend that nothing has happened... or to just condemn and crush sinners so that they go to hell and suffer for all eternity.
If Cardinal Pell is guilty, Jesus would want him to repent of his sins. If he truly does, then as his Lord, he will be the one taking up responsibility and be crucified so that Pell the repented sinner can live again. If he is unrepentant, then not even his Savior will be able to save him... and he will indeed rot in hell... and he'd pretty much lived his life as an hypocrite.
I have imagined myself as the adulterous woman who got caught and brought to Jesus as people are ready to judge and stone me to death.
Jesus won't just go along with the mob and stone me, a guilty sinner, to death.
Jesus also won't go along with another mob, praising me as if I did nothing wrong.
Jesus would want me to change and to sin no more and live a better fuller life. That's what Christianity is all about. To help people live better fuller lives. To remember to always maintain faith, hope and love regardless of circumstances.
Eulogies are usually about remember the dead guy by saying some good things about him. Surely there are something good from all of us... and surely there are some bad shit from all of us as well. In a funeral, should we just all focus on all the bad shit the dead guy has done? Or perhaps be more balanced and mention both good and bad?
Whatever. The guys is dead already. If you don't like the guy, don't attend his funeral. Don't say anything good and that should be enough. Rather than pass judgments, it's best we use them as lessons learned for us. How not to be like Adam and Eve. How not to be like King David... when others screw up, try to learn from that and don't screw it up for myself, or my family! We should also be more responsible and not see Catholic church as a day care center.
Nobody's perfect in this world. Our current culture war is all about seeing the bad about folks on the other side while ignoring problems on their own side. Jesus sees problems in all of us, yet he still loves us and he'll help us fix our problems and change for the better.
Western white world has obviously done a LOT of evils around the world. However, Western white world has also done a lot of good as well. What needs to be done isn't to just crush and destroy the entire western world and have a do over, but to learn what was done right and what was done wrong and then we try to do even better.
For sure Jesus did not teach Cardinal Pell to molest kids. So I'm not going to hate Jesus because of what Pell has done. I'm also not going to hate Jesus because there are a lot of Christians eulogizing Pell. The guy was convicted and is dead. It's probably time to move on... oh, and most importantly on my faith journey, I'm following Christ, not christians. It'd be nice to have other like minded folks' support along the way, but even if those supports are gone or perhaps even wrong, I shouldn't stop following the person who I want to follow in the first place. Religious faith must not be compelled by peer pressure!
