And this is why Bishop John Carroll’s family entanglements with freemasonry at the time of his refusal to promulgate antimasonic encyclicals is so troubling, and suggestive of the future trajectory of the Church hierarchy in the U.S.
Why should this surprise you,dear friend?
We have the same problem today where some Bishop's and Clergy do not follow the teachings of the Church.
They may have hell to pay for it!
