Sorry, but Hubbard has been accused too many times to count of personal sexual indicretions - with teenaged boys, and with seminarians. Publicly so. In The Albany TImes Union. By some of his own priests. One known to me personally.

Sorry, but the preponderance of circumstantial evidence is on my side. I knew the dead preist who was one of those who informed on Hubbard, to Cardinal O' Connor of NY (the Metroplitan), and to the Pope. I refer to the late Fr. Minkler.

We are speaking of a "Bishop" who has certainly broken his vow of celibacy, and has protected clerics under his watch who have done likewise, and protected clerical sex offenders who abused minors. We are speaking of a man who has shown himself to be protective of sexual deviants in his employ, and who is personally accused of the same behaviour.

Hubbard is the one who needs to apoligize. To God, the Holy Father, and his Diocese.

No, there seems to be some confusion here. Your comment was in response to Deo Volente, and he/she specifically spoke about Cardinal Mahony, not Bishop Hubbard. So your comment reads as if you are speaking about Cardinal Mahony. If you made a mistake and were referring to Bishop Hubbard, you should say so.
