Cardinal George was not Pfleger’s Bishop 20 years ago. Sadly, that was Cardinal Bernadin, author of the “Seamless Garment” nonsense. Bernadin is why Fr. Pfleger was allowed to become so full of himself, and why Cardinal George has the problem today.
You can't blame Bernadin for actions after his death. Cardinal George has had numerous opportunities and sufficient cause to send this heretic packing.
I like Cardinal George and admire him but in this area he has really missed the boat.
