I will pray for Cardinal Dolan because he has committed a grove and public error. He failed to stand in the breach when the winds of cultural rot blew strong. Very sad for him and for the Church. But he is just one man and not the whole church.

"But he is just one man and not the whole church."

Amen!

When a Church leader speaks or acts against the teachings of the Church (such as saying "Bravo!" and "Good for him!" about an actively homosexual football player revealing his sinful choices), that Church leader should be replaced.

Dolan himself replaced Archbishop Rembert Weakland in Milwaukee some years ago, after Weakland's own episodes of speaking and acting against the teachings of the Church, so he clearly knows it is necessary when a situation calls for it.

While he may be one man, he’s not “just” one man, if you get my point. He’s Cardinal Archbishop of New York.

If the Pope does not remove him from New York, then the Pope endorses Dolan’s scandalous buffoonery.
