I can't imagine why. His first letter sounded like it was crafted by lawyers to provide legal cover for their client. Even yesterday's letter didn't acknowledge any wrongdoing, and although at least it sounded apologetic, it still struck me as more crafted than contrite.

Yes, crafted not contrite. I wish he would speak more from the heart. And knowing the Cardinals gathered together in Philly before jumping the Atlantic puddle to Rome doesn't sound good either. I can't help but wonder about all the protective legal aspects and end runs that were discussed. There are many good and holy men in our church but they need to be bumped up to the hierarchy. We need saintly leadership.
