Bishop Lynch (St. Petersburg, FL) took an anti-life stance in this case.
To add insult to injury, Michael Schiavo and Jody Centonze were married in a Catholic Church, once he won his case to have Terry, his wife, starved to death.
My, my. What to think.
I would toss it up to a bad priest. There are bad people in every profession.
Being a Catholic priest is not a "profession".
That sounds a lot like "Oh, well. What are you gonna do?" Obviously the Pope chose to do nothing. The Catholic Church does not benefit from shielding bad priests, IMO.
