wheat will be separated from the chaff. Those amazing statements from bishops prior to the election are a precursor to much more heroic shepherding to come.

I sure hope so. The big problem is that the bishops are a mixed bag. Raymond Arroyo spoke to several bishops at the recent USCCB conference who told him that they suspected that as much as 50% of their fellow bishops had voted for Obama. That means that there is a tremendous amount of disloyalty and heresy even in the heirarchy (as if we didn't know that!).

Probably because they don't believe in Catholicism but like the prestige of their position in life and don't know where else to go for a job
