I hope I’m wrong, but I fear we are all witnessing the first movements of a full-blown schism that will dwarf the Great Schism of the 11th century, as the Roman Catholic Church breaks into three distinct factionstraditionalism; the far left (Pope Francis); and the far far left (Rev Charles Curran, Richard McBrien).
Where would Jesus be?
