What has Burke gained?

A reputation that he is not to be trifled with in such matters. For once we have a bishop who has shown some serious backbone and I'm amazed to see so many of the FR Catholic girly-men whining about it.

I laud and support Archbishop Burke.

You and those like you - who support the type of uneccesarliy heavy handed leadership of Burke (which is both uneccesary, and stupid in light of the universal apostacy & homosexuality flourishing in the clergy everywhere)do so because he has given you a tiny tidbit of verbalized "orthodoxy".

Uh-huh. Keep up your support........send him and his ilk all of your cash. You will willingly support a "bishop" like this.......

........until it is YOUR parish which is to have its assets seized/closed/merged/suppressed.

Then you will sing a different song. Or.......maybe, out of misplaced loyalty, you will rejoice as the bishops seizes your parish's assets, and the wrecking ball smashes the church your forebears sweated to build and fund.
