It’s commonly known in L.A. that Mahoney is up to his ears in activity that would, to say the least, not be considered in the best public relations interests of the Catholic Church. That’s probably all I dare say.

It’s about time that the Cardinal be brought to answer for his actions.

Would prefer if he were under interdict...

...but, his status notwithstanding, I won’t shed many tears about this...

[Cicero]

I’m just going by what I’ve heard, but Cardinal Mahoney is definitely one of the major bad guys in the Church. The sooner he gets the boot, the better.

Cardinal Mahoney, my local Cardinal, is looking at a price tag larger than other dioceses for gay abuses (probably over $1 billion). He is already asking for money from each of his 295 parishes and has made the wealthy and traditional Catholics feel like strangers.

Where does that infamous “Separation of Church and State” enter into this?

Rome should have sent a Holy Inquisition to the United States precisely in order to deal over the heads of Mahoney and others like him. Can’t say I am unsympathetic when the state is doing the Church’s job.

[nufsed]

The current and recent pope are responsible for this enabler remaining in his office. He's all over LA as if he's the spiritual leader when he has lost his moral authority.

He should be in Barstow hearing and going to confession as a simple priest.

If the feds put him in jail, justice will be served.

[aculeus]

Good news.

[Natural Law]

We should all expect a lot more of these show piece prosecutions. Just like their predecessors in Germany in the 1930s today's socialists are aggressively seeking to undermine moral authority of the Catholic Church.
