He had two OPEN BLASPHEMERS appear right in front of his face, and yet he still stood in Christ's place and performed the sacrament for them.

Did you watch the film?

Yes, I saw the tape. There was absolutely no mistaking these people for who and what they were. They were open and obvious that their intention was to disgrace the Roman Catholic Church, and indeed all of of Christianity. They succeeded with the help of the Bishop. I have all sympathy for the fact that anyone, Bishops included, can be taken by surprise and make a mistake. The tape shows that this Bishop had no such excuse. He was in the heart of perhaps the most hateful-towards-Christianity section of the entire country. For him to claim ignorance is not credible. The Bishop knew where he was and he absolutely should have known what the possibilities were to expect. Intellectually, I give the Bishop credit for being greater than a complete idiot, which is what he would have to have been to be surprised by what actually happened in the heart of San Francisco.
