A Florida bishop, recently retired, wrote in a parting reflection on his blog, as is now customary, about the Church’s loss of our young people. His narrative (in which he never mentions the name of Jesus) includes this passage which illustrates a pattern of ambiguity and lack of confidence in the Gospel:

That bishop would be Robert Lynch of St. Petersburg, whose stupendous achievements include banning Eucharistic adoration in his diocese, abandoning Terri Schiavo at her hour of greatest need and making unsolicited sexual advances on other men.

A faithless, destructive rogue who wrought untold havoc to the sheep he was supposed to shepherd.

Hands down, the worst bishop in America and amongst a mob of faithless, zeitgeist-grovelers, that's really saying something.

Thanks for narrowing that down. I had suspected it was Lynch.
