This article is nothing more than one step in the "save Cardinal Law" campaign -- the Archdiocese of Boston is trying to deflect criticism about its handling of child molesters by claiming that the Catholic Church's policy on celibate priests is the real reason why all their rectories are dominated by freaks.
I think Bush should take the time to "talk" to the Vatican's Ambassador and "suggest" that it would be the best for
all concerned for Cardinal Law to retire. One way or the other.
I believe the celibacy requirement was tool implemented by the Church in the 12th century as a way to avoid the
willing of Church property to the heirs of its then priests.
In this era of "returning to one's roots", it may not be a bad idea.
Everybody else has agreed that resigning is the best thing, and hopefully repent over such obvious bad judgement.
Are you listening, Bernie? Or sticking your head in the sand, yet again?
