Shameful. Some Catholics may be speaking up but the prelates responsible for ND and Georgetown are silent. At ND the head of Jenkins's order, now known as the OPP (Order of Pontius Pilate), actually speaks in support of that POS. That order is directly responsible to the Pope.

The formerly self-proclaimed Catholic university of Georgetown claims to have a Jesuit identity, though these days, craven and cowardly, they are more like those who abandoned Him in the garden. The Jesuits are directly under the supervision of the Pope.

I am but a layman, but I will pray mightily the Lord will move Pope Benedict to exercise his ultimate authority, and restore the good name "Catholic" to both these institutions.

It appears a number of the US Catholic clergy need a good, long stay at some Trappist monastery where they can contemplate to which church they are actually belong and to which Lord they owe allegiance.

I couldn't agree with you more.

And many bishops have read ND the "riot act."

And I expect the same response for Georgetown.
