I was surprised that they made an example of Bishop Martino, because he didn’t seem to be the most vocal or conservative bishop.
made an example? confused.
Martino spoke out against abortion, against Obama’s election, against Obama appearing at Notre Dame. Many other bishops did too.
There is more to this than just speaking out about these pro-life issues. I haven’t figured it out yet.
Are you thinking that it came from within the USCCB? I doubt it.
Probably from the liberals in his state.
