[El Cid]

The quote is from Fr Thomas Rosica, not “the” “Vatican” ...

I don't doubt that the Media lies and distorts ('tis what they do), but the Catholic leadership should bounce renegade clerics - such as this Rosica - from their ranks. Yet they don't.

[Mrs. Don-o]

I agree with you 100%.

Too much water under the bridge at this point to refer to Rosica et al. as "renegade clerics". They are clearly following orders from above or they would have been fired (as was Charamsa, the CDF homo-priest drama queen who burst out of the closet last week and was banished by the Vatican within 24 hours).

I assume you suggest the same course of action for mainline Protestant churches, such as ELCA, PCUSA, UCC and Episcopalians...? If not, why not...?
