Cardinal Dolan also acknowledged that the bishops had suffered from “laryngitis” on Humanae Vitae for fifty years. That’s why they hadn’t taught any other tough moral truths of the faith either.

Things happen when you are smack dab in the middle of a schism.

"Another ten years later, Timothy Cardinal Dolan admitted that most bishops had decided that they wouldn’t “go to the mat” to follow Church law on canon 915."

They consider themselves to be "above the law."

Canon Law. Civil law. Church Law. Natural Law. God's Law ... All Law.

Manion says --- with a confidence that surprises me--- that now they're at the end of their tether. I hope he's right.

I certainly know less about it than he (Manion) does. My own hunch is that it's going to take a much more comprehensive collapse of the whole USCCB power structure. The Bad Guys have very far-reaching branches and very deep roots.

And the so-called "good" bishops don't denounce them.

Nobody said a word --- nobody made a peep --- until the police and subpoena servers were pounding on the chancery door.

Mario Cuomo, NY Governor {January 1, 1983 – December 31, 1994} was granted a mass Of Christian burial at St. Ignatius of Loyola RC Church and buried in St. John Cemetery(RC) with the approval of Servant of God, Cardinal Cooke.

I don’t remember much about Cooke, but I remember at the time being outraged! An unrepentant ‘abortion rights’ zealot like Cuomo should be not have been worthy of such honors.
