That long awaited day has finally arrived!

Here in the NY, we still have another 3 years until the retirement of Bishops Hubbard and Clark. Mahony's retirement brings us consolation.

The mess will not be straightened out quickly. You can’t fire all the bad priests, or there would be no one to say Mass in a lot of parishes. So you have to try to control them and improve things gradually.

And my experience is that they don’t usually fire the lay staffers and catechists, but wait for them to retire, I suppose out of human sympathy for them. I think that sympathy is misplaced, considering the terrible damage they do, but I can understand it.

Mahoney had a lot of time to make this mess, and it will take a lot of time to clean it up. But it’s a start.

” “I am challenged by his call for us to live the Gospel – to find Christ among the poor, to love the immigrant as our neighbor and our friend.””

At the transition Mass, Archbishop Gomez graciously thanked the cardinal for his leadership of the archdiocese over the course of 26 years. Cardinal Mahony's legacy, he said, is “a Church that radiates the love of God and the truth of the Gospel.”

“He has shown us what Christ wants his Church to be – a communion of cultures and a communion of saints, one family of God drawn from every country, race, and language.” The archbishop said that Cardinal Mahony “has helped us open our hearts, to love God and to love our brothers and sisters.”

The Taj Mahoney should be sold for whatever they can get for it, and then the new bishop should build a real cathedral, no matter how small, or rehab the old one.

Either that, of just blow the thing up... And salt the earth.

Great to finally see a real bishop occupy the Taj Mahoney!

Btw, does anyone know the Archbishop’s views on immigration? I have heard conflicting information.
