The Vatican investigation of Finn was about his ability to lead a diocese. It was not about any cover up or accusations of a cover up.
How do you explain Mahoney, Cupich, Gomez, Dolan, Wuerl, O’Malley, Lynch, Marx, Maradiaga, etc and their abilities to lead a diocese? Bishop Finn stands head and shoulders over all the above.
Finn made outdoor parades of the crucifix through the latino quadrant along Southwest Boulevard a reality. Passersby stopped, kneeled, crossed themselves as the parade of the crucifix went by. Finn paraded down Broadway one year as well. He kept Christ out in front and Mohammed tucked away somewhere else. Kansas City is ripe for Sharia law and Finn fought it better than any other bishop in the USA. That is the reason her is gone.
