I saw it and thought it was about his father Martin.
The Peoria diocease should, that is the bishop should take this up with Rome and pray and work to get this resolved.
Figures, Cardinal Dolan and the NYC Archdiocese is gumming up the process. Both want to play “hardball” with Peoria.
Thank-you and God Bless as well.
Slowly, they are being replaced by much better bishops. Stay patient.
If this saintly Archbishop Sheen was alive today, he would have not only a tv show, but a Catholic style talkradio show, plus his own website.
Martin Sheen took his stage name from Bishop Fulton Sheen. His real name is Ramon Estevez.
“Slowly, they are being replaced by much better bishops. Stay patient.”
Baloney. Malarkey.
Dolan was consecrated bishop in 2001, far, far into the papacy of St. John Paul II. He wasn't some leftover from the Bernadin Boys or the Jadot juene filles.
He's just plainly a bad bishop, a part-time Catholic and full-time Democrap. Like Donna Wuerl.

Well there have been a number of much more conservative bishops appointed the last few years. My own archdiocese has a good Archbishop, Leonard Blair.
Even many of the “good” appointments haven't been that great. Dolan was supposed to be a good appointment, one of the good guys.
He's little more than a stooge for the Party of Satan.
The appointment of Wuerl in place of McCarrick was actually a downgrade. Most bishops fall into one of three categories: bad; worse; worst.
But heck, Jesus appointed twelve, one turned out to be an apostate, 10 more were cowards who fled from Him in His darkest hour, only one was faithful through it all.

.....Yet God continues to FORGIVE and WELCOME BACK even the worse of sinners.
While you all place blame on big, bad Dolan, we see that it was "Rome" that made the final decision. You can't tell me that "Rome" couldn't make Dolan cooperate.
You have a point there, piusv.
I have just come across this press release from the Archdiocese of NY, which gives some more information about what’s going on.
If I’m reading it right, it does appear that this is now entirely in Rome’s court:

Did anyone else find that the press release really cleared things up?
