RobbyS, Who in your Church has the authority to straighten this mess out? JH

I should probably let a Roman Catholic answer this, but I think the first answer is the Holy Spirit.

Now if the question is what human being has the authority to straighten the mess out in the Catholic Church -- there is no doubt in my mind -- from the outside mind you -- that Mother Angelica the TV nun is the one who should clean house.

Normally, lay people defer to the bishops, but now influencial Catholic voices, such as William F. Buckley and others are speaking out. Individual bishops who have been hesitant to take action will be emboldened to act. The problem will be the hue and cry that will arise when the homosexual clergy call upon their allies in the liberal press to protect them.
