In the post to which I am responding you give Bishop Carlson credit for couragously upholding Church teaching. Yet several posts prior to this one,you lump Bishop Carlson in with a group of little (b) bishops. What's the story?

in the sloppy style he actually included all Bishops, alive and dead:

all too numerous examples of Ecclesiastical Malfeasance on all sides, (O'Brien, Mahony, Gumbleton, Weakland, Law, Carlson, Flynn, Egan, Maida, etc etc etc ad infinitum...).

Even considering this is a case of hyperbole, the discussion was pretty much unfounded in fact, but simply in personal "belief". In the case of Law, Weakland, Law it is pretty clear cut, one doesn't have to look hard to find heterodox writings (or heterodox fish) by these men.

In the case of Levada, we have nothing to talk about for examples of the heterodox; thats what I am seeking.
