This article contains some information that is wrong. The previous bishop, Bishop Cummins arranged it so he would have full control of the cathedral, even after he was no longer bishop. Bishop Allen Vigneron has no control over the cathedral project whatsoever. It's very unfortunate, but that is the current situation. I will try to update this with more information later, but please bump all the people on this thread to this, so there is no misunderstanding.

That's contrary to Canon Law. Vigneron could simply overrule him, if he chose, and Cummins wouldn't have a leg to stand on.

Okay, how is this possible? If it is this way, there is a HUGE violation of canon law involved.

BTW, a lot of the Cathedrals were expensive to build (and are expensive to maintain). Ours wasn't cheap, but it was built with granite, marble, and stone. The mosiacs took 61 years to install. If it's done right, it's worth it. If it's not...

Ah, that explains it. So I put the blame on the wrong bishop, then.

Wow, no control... how can that be I wonder? I know Bishop Vigneron inherited a oretty bad situation. But then he left Detroit after doing a lot for the seminary there.
