Precisely. I did exactly what Fr. Thommasi did. But for some reason, you're giving him a pass. Maybe it's because you agree with his opinions.
I do agree with his opinion, which is well-supported and not a knee-jerk reaction. What's wrong with that?
I'm not giving him a pass on anything, and I said that I thought it unfortunate that he was initially rejecting the article by John Allen because Allen reports for the NCR - although he then said that Allen was fair and responded to the article. You should give him the same courtesy.
What do you think of his actual statements? What is there in his statements that you do not agree with? Do you see anything erroneous, misleading or deceitful? If not, what is your opinion? And what knowledge can you contribute to the subject?
