"I mean no disrespect to the bishop — he has his job to do, and I will always have my opinion," McNulty said. "(But) I thought that we, as Catholics, should open our arms and open our churches and be there for people rather than shutting doors."

I'm sure the church confessional will be open anytime.

Great bishop! Doing what the first apostles Peter and Paul would do! We badly need a Bishop Martino in Los Angeles and Sacramento

Deo Gratias!! Thank you Bishop Martino for teaching and defending the Faith.

Three cheers for Bishop Martino. A great leader is emerging in my estimation.

"Hey, it’s Lt. Reginald “Reg” Barclay!"

To me he'll ALWAYS be Murdoch.

Will do! Anyone who wants to keep up with the saga should take a look at the diocesan website: http://www.dioceseofscranton.org/

The CINO’s expected him to back down when they started barking. It’s truly a blessing to have a bishop willing to stand up for the truth.
