A commendable move. Hats off to the padre on this one.

Let us hope Cardinal Mahony of LA is in line for similar treatment...

Too bad that the Vatican doesn’t excommunicate suborners of child sodomy like they did back in the Middle Ages.

One of the new Popes first acts will be to arrange new cloistered accommodation for the disgraced cardinal Why isn't he just fired and told to move on, kicked out of the church's big boys, and sent back to regular American living as an ordinary person?

Vatican City is recognized,under international law,as a sovereign nation and one would think that the Pope is the Prime Minister,Justice Minister,etc.So could the Pope actually *expel* him from Vatican City,thus opening him up to possible extradition? Hmmm....

“Cardinal Bernard Law resigned as Archbishop of Boston in 2002, after being accused of actively covering up for a litany of paedophile priests.
Despite the scandal which exploded to engulf the entire church, he was given an honorary position at the Basilica Santa Maria Maggiore, in Rome. “
Tells you exactly what is wrong. I hope the new guy can fix it, being as drastic as necessary to restore the church to a position of credibility.

Despite the scandal which exploded to engulf the entire church, he was given an honorary position at the Basilica Santa Maria Maggiore, in Rome.Every Cardinal has a Rome-diocese church at which he conducts services when that Cardinal is in Rome, or so I understand.
So by barring Law from one of the perks of Law's cardinalate, Francis is rather forcefully inviting Law to disappear. (I don't know whether a pope can dismiss a cardinal. I tend to doubt it, particularly where the cardinal at issue was given that office by a prior pope. Anyone know?)

If Pope Francis doesn’t excommunicate Law, maybe he will force him to be cloistered and Law will leave on his own.
