I pray that Fr. Jenkins soon reconciles himself to the Church, or God help his soul.
The Federal government has nothing to do with investigations into priest abuse, so That One has nothing 'on' Fr. Jenkins. Jenkins is doing this because he thinks it's the 'sophisticated' thing to do, inviting the first Black President. He doesn't care that That One is virulently pro-abortion, he's the 'cool guy' and his is an 'historic Presidency'. Jenkins thought it would make Notre Dame look good by scoring That One for the Commencement.
I'm sure there are lots of families of kids who are graduating from ND this year who will be thrilled to have That One deliver the address, and received an honorary Diploma, for the same reason Jenkins issued the invitation. They are more concerned about how THEY will be perceived by their friends and associates than about the state of their, or their childrens', everlasting souls.
In that case, it’s even worse than I thought. Thank for the eye opener, SuziQ
