Royal on Mahony | National Catholic Reporter by MSW. MGB: I disagree with Cardinal Mahoney's remark that he did not have the tools to deal with that problem, or with a quote on the Church in the 1950s. When Jesus said that any that lead astray one of the least of these were better thrown into the sea with a millstone around his neck, he was talking about real sexual abuse, not the mental masturbation of doctrinal niceties. The Church, however, has been unwilling to face this honestly for 2000 years and will likely to keep on doing so. We can only try haltingly at such efforts - although an opening to homosexuality as a natural condition may help us to do so.
