Four? Try ten decades. The property thing took place under Archbishop Kain, not matter what you read, if it really happened in the 1890's. In the 1960's, Ritter was archbishop and he had other fish to fry. Literally.
Well, then, Burke should act like a man of the cloth.
The sad thing is, if you watch the video of the town hall meetings, Burke was very mild. He couldn't even get a sentence out.
Sad? He announced that it was his intention to take the property. Everyone knew Burke would not bend, in any way. Hell, the board presented a proposal that was accepted by lawyers on both sides in December.
Burke vetoed it.
Raymond Burke is a throwback to a time of bullying prelates, like John Francis McIntyre of Los Angeles and Francis Spellman of New York. They treated their priests like serfs, and the people of their dioceses like children.
Fabian Bruskewitz Peter-principled himself out in Lincoln. I predict that Burke, if he continues to act arbitrarily, will never get the red hat, nor will he ever be moved to an archdiocese where he could get it.
Video tape wouldn't satisfy some. Good luck.
