Makes me ashamed to be a Roman Catholic to see this.

One bishop's decision may embarrass you but it should not be the source of shame for your faith. If anything, it should prompt you to pray for him.

The other poster was writing a quick, understandably emotional response. He probably doesn't really feel shame for the faith per se, but for the deplorable fallen nature of some of the bishops and priests.

Of course you’re right. Let me put it another way. It was a shameful and dissapointing action. Steve said it better than I could.

ONLY after you 'pray' for those who have the POWER to REMOVE him from his position.
