CARDINAL GEORGE APOLOGIZES TO THE FAITHFUL
for recent revelations and allegations, and then makes this appeal:
And then, the Archbishop of Chicago delivered a direct demand of all who wear the collar.
"There is so much I remain unaware of, yet I am, in the end, responsible for it all. I want to say now that if there is any priest that is leading a double life, he should for the sake of the Church come forward."
Obviously there is not going to be a line. In fact, I wonder who that statement was made for? Certainly no one is gullible enough to think the Cardinal expects it to accomplish a house cleaning, are they?
Imagine how things would be now if these sins were delt with properly when they first surfaced. Yet without Rome's blessing to deal with them properly, bishops had no choice but to cover up in the beginning.
The buck does stop at the top. The legacy of JPII lives on.
