No. He is one of many priests, prominent and not-so-prominent, who have spent decades spewing hatred for the Catholic Church with not a scintilla of a response from the local bishop(s) or Rome. McBrien is one of those who has been a cheerleader for Mario Cuomo, Ted Kennedy, etc., and never had a bad word for an abortionist or a kind word for a pro-lifer, yet has managed never to come right out and say, “Abortion is a good thing.” He knows that as long as he doesn’t cross that one line, no bishop and no Pope will ever lift a finger.

People who preach bile like this are like gangrene. They sicken the entire Body of the Church. He should be amputated.
How many Catholic youth has he led astray in his vile career? ( rhetorical question only)
