It's mind blowing to me that when he is faced with that particular evil he utterly fails to understand or act on his own words. For me it's not just the coddling of Ratigan, it's the betrayal of his own thinking. So I suspect you are quite right, every time he opens his mouth he will rip open the wound because he has proven in spades he can't be trusted.colkochnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8383701632927065467.post-3201253346417151132013-01-27T04:36:06.571-07:002013-01-27T04:36:06.571-07:00He laid low during the election season.

He is testing the waters around here to see if the distaste for him in this diocese is still as strong. He is ginning up his conservative base. He knows that they will open up their pocketbooks. This diocese is in horrible financial shape. His own Cathedral bulletin has stopped printing the weekly contributions. (They have started to publish them quarterly.) <br />I think that he will find that his continuation in office rips open the wound every time that he opens his mouth. A wound that he is responsible for.Rick Larsennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8383701632927065467.post-82890089099195753122013-01-26T16:42:49.837-07:002013-01-26T16:42:49.837-07:00Finn, please repent already.

How exactly does failing to report sexual abuse fit with the teachings of Christ? He should have voluntarily ex-communicated himself.<br /><br />p2p<br />(My first verification word was mslust)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
