It would have been more accurate to call him Rev. Richard McBrien, dissenting heretic.
There's a big difference between having a difference of opinion with a bishop (whom she nevertheless apparently obeyed) when the bishop is wrong, and having a difference of opinion with a bishop who is speaking in defense of the doctrines of the Church.
McBrien is the second kind of dissenter, unlike this new saint.
The AP strikes again. I'm surprised they didn't get Frances Kissling to say that the new saint would have loved partial-birth abortion.
