Whaddya mean? It would be HISTORIC!
“conservative and orthodox” wing?
What other wing is there besides the separated wing?
Bishop Hubbard in Albany has been a disaster — as you know, too well! — and Matthews in Rochester have been disasters, so I think the Pope will not appoint a lefty to New York.
. . . we can only hope . . . .
My dad used to say that the only way to get rid of certain politicians was to kick them upstairs to Washington D.C., but New York would certainly be far enough away.
Abp. Gregory is not a really good fit for Atlanta.
I thought I read on a FR thread that it may be bishop serratelli from the paterson, nj diocese. Did nyer or someone else post it? or did I read it in the newspaper.
Prayers,prayers, prayers.
The archbishops you listed were mainly silent on the abortion issue.How about someone like Archbishop Chaput?I hope Archbishop Burke has a lot to say in the new appointment.
Archbishop Wilton Gregory of Atlanta
Pentin contradicts himself.
Chaput is not that conservative or orthodox; re his not so covert suppression of Summorum Pontificum in the Archdiocese of Denver as only one example.
Archbishop Chaput has been one of the bishops who has spoken out publically on issues of importance to traditional Catholics.
Do you live in his Archdiocese and have you spoken to him personally or are you basing your opinion on what you’ve read about him?
Mansell is not conservative, he presided over, supported and, insured the liberalization of the only Catholic seminary in western NY (Christ the King).
I was a lay student there and a fried of mine was getting his M. Div for his Unitarian universalist church.
Frequently he and I were the ones explaining and defending authentic Catholic teaching to seminarians studying for the priesthood.
Put up a better name than Archbishop Chaput or for that matter Archbishop Burke.
This could not be related to the earlier thread, which said BAD news was coming soon regarding a prominent church leader. I take that to mean either a serious illness or a scandal. This is neither.

Now answer the questions I posed to you.
Which candidate is 59 years old?
Archbishop Dolan turns 59 on Friday: http://www.catholic-hierarchy.org/bishop/bdolan.html
Archbishop Gonzales Nieves is 58 1/2.
These bishops came much later in that list of over 100 Bishops who spoke out about life being the primary issue in the election.
Archbishop Wilton Gregory georgiabulletin.org ...
Archbishop Dolan http://www.jsonline.com/news/opinion/32482989.html.
Burke is in Rome.
