[Catholic Caucus] Papal appointments include appointment of Cardinal Mahony as special envoy
Catholic Culture ^ | January 15, 2018 | Catholic Culture

Posted on 01/15/2018 7:33:59 AM PST by ebb tide

Editors Note: On January 13, Pope Francis appointed three consultors to the Congregation for the Causes of Saints and named Cardinal Roger Mahony as his special envoy to the celebration of the 150th anniversary of the Diocese of Scranton. Cardinal Mahony’s appointment as pontifical legate comes five years after his successor in Los Angeles, Archbishop José Gomez, relieved the cardinal of all public and administrative duties amid the release of files related to the clerical abuse scandal.

There’s a lot more about Cdl Mahoney, including goings on at his pad in Palm Springs while he was Archbishop of LA. But who is Francis to judge?

“Would like to know more bout that”

GOOD LUCK!-with delving DEEP to find how many-(100’s!)

of children molested, families destroyed- the press did do

a job on attacking the Catholic Church- but NOT on the

EVIL men perpetuating this Sin against God and man.

Hey- I know, lets make him a special envoy!-
Know one can complain about that- SARC

I have visceral hatred for the man. I live in soCal and followed his machinations with the DA all the while.

my prayers to you-

I have a relative that recently prosecuted a sexual
abusing priest- these men are satanic- and the church seems to want to hang onto them!

a rhetorical question- why would this “guy “ become a
“special envoy?”- pure evil

The church thinks’s been punished because he’s been living the life of a cardinal in the vatican.

Mahony ruined $250m in the construction of the Los Angeles cathedral that looks more like an industrial warehouse with little statuary. Easily, the worst prelate in California history. This appointment speaks volumes of Bergoglio for whom Mahony all but made clear he voted for.

Yes, but he’s an expert at withholding information from the district attorney. So he has that going for him. LOL

Isn’t he called “Roger the Dodger” for a very old reason?
