Just more examples of vulgarly trying the shoehorn the Pope to endorse their sinful abominations and iniquitous behavior.

Either the Pope rids the clergy of homosexuals and makes celibacy optional or the vile molestations of boys will continue and people will be alienated from the Church. To be politically correct and “tolerant” is to be delusional. Homosexuals are simply sick and dangerous to young boys.

[Romulus]

Isn’t it Greg Burke’s job to explain to the Holy Father how the game is played?

I am looking very hard for reasons to like this pope, but he makes it hard. He has no filter and an ego the size of JPII’s. He has sentimental tendencies that lead him into liberal quicksand, whether he intends it or not. He may think he’s playing a canny Jesuit game of Softly Softly Catchee Monkey — but the dangerous possibility is that he’s the monkey.
