Is that what Delaney is waiting for or Roger Cardinal McPhony in LA? Weakland would have cracked down but he did not perceive a signal from the Vatican? Bernardin would not have had his estate pay to have his funeral music provided by the "Windy City Gay Men's Chorus" if only the Vatican had signalled disapproval of the love that once dared not speak its name? Cardinal Law would have been a champion of the Faith but he did not get a telegram? Pilarczyk and Pilla just did not get the chance to be Catholic because the mail didn't arrive? Puhleeeze!!!!!!
Furthermore, it is up to the ordinary of the diocese to clean his own house. As Catholics, we have a tradition of subsidiarity expecting the power to be exercised as close to the scene of the evil as feasible. The Vatican is doing its job by replacing the cowards and apostates with Catholic bishops. The Vatican's problem was in allowing organized leftists to influence the choice of bishops in years past. Let the games begin. Let the purge be thorough. Let the thumbs be turned downwards and let us hear the last of Kumbaya "Catholicism" and of AmChurch.
Amen. And, let the eyes of the faithful be opened to the truth about the lack of manliness in their bishops. It is very frustrating to have a politician for a bishop. They beat around the bush. They are slippery as eels. They cannot be pinned down on ANYTHING. They will not admit to any malfeasance or dereliction. It is very sad that so many of the bishops in place today are little more than party hacks and apparatchiki.
