Fr. Bryan Hehir will be speaking on a panel at Boston College on Thursday, Feb. 17 .
The program is part of BC’s ”Catholic Church in the 21st Century”, and the topic is “Diocesan Priesthood in the 21st Century: Perspectives from Three Generations.”
The panel is moderated by Fr. Robert Imbelli of BC, and will include diocesan priests, Fr. Hehir ’66, Fr. Paul O’Brien ’91, and Fr. William Lohan ’08. The blog can attest that two of the three priests are solid orthodox priests, and one of those two is widely respected.
Following the panel, there will be time for open Q&A with the panelists.
The program is open to the public and starts at 5:30pm on Feb. 17. It takes place in the Heights Room, Corcoran Commons, Lower Campus.
Those faithful Catholics who want our clergy to adhere to the fullness of Catholicism and who live in the Boston area, might wnat to attend so they can ask Hehir some pointed questions on his stand with regard to the Church's teachings that he swore an oath to defend at the time of his ordination.
Fr. Hehir is an out and out heretic. I hope they are inviting him in order to show him up in the debate, but I wouldn’t be too confident of that.
Evil man. Had many dealings with him at Harvard. He found the pro-life community offensive and did everything possible to block us.
Hehir was also heavily involved in the nuclear disarmamnet debates in the Reagan era.
