*** It helps to think in centuries and not years.***

Elect me Pope and we can deal with this in years not centuries. We Proddies "take the bull by the horns" and there is lots of "bull" that needs "taking."

Mahoney is number one on my "Papal To Do List" -- make a statement to the AmChurch. A Mel Gibson financed Chapel on the site of the bulldozed Taj Mahoney with an orthodox Cardinal residing there is my style of change.

But really, think in centuries. It's not a cliche.

If you act strongly and cause a formal schism, how many might become lost? Versus the situation whereby we can reclaim the dioceses that are troubled through attrition and by a re-awakening of orthodoxy?

As Pope, you will be responsible for your actions and must take such things into consideration. Maybe this generation in LA is lost. Do you want to make that permanent?

These are the questions a pope faces.

Works for me 8-) Actually, removing Mahoney would suffice. Leveling the Taj Mahoney, or selling it to the UN for earth worship, would be the icing on the cake.
