How is everyone to know this isn’t from the Vatican? It’s coming from an archbishop’s mouth into an official publication.

Are we to ignore all things from Catholic leaders until they are individually verified by the Vatican?

It’s easy. If it isn’t coming from the Vatican or verified by the Vatican, it’s someone’s opinion.

Are you Catholic?

In a word, yes.

Specially for political opinions.

There seems to be mass confusion sbout the hierarchical Catholic church structure.

As far as bishops and archbishops go, they are simply managers; not all of them immune from the Peter Principle.

Catholic leaders, most are certainly not!
