Will you be paying all the plane tickets for people “to be storming Rome”?! Catholics worldwide are like protestants worldwide - hardworking people with jobs or looking for jobs. They have no time or money to “storm Rome.” They do the best they can in their free time to fight injustice and immoral behavior.

Where is the storming of the gates among conservative protestants at the abuses of the mainline protestant churches? I don’t see that, either.

As a NYer, I remember the unbelieveable fight Catholics in NYC put up to keep gays out of this parade. I was there when Act Up threw the Host onto the ground - as vile an act as the burning of Torah during the Nazi era. Perhaps people got complacent in thinking the war had been won over this issue - mistaking the battle for the war.

Well for that matter the damn parade is not until March 2015. A lot can happen between now and then! I really don't know what we are supposed to do to make the detractors happy? Should we hang the Cardinal? I am so glad I go to a Church where everyone knows they ain't perfect. I really, really , really am!
