The Church in 2014 | National Catholic Reporter by MSW.  MGB:  I noticed that you did not mention the possibility of Philadelphia getting a red hat - or rather the impossibility.  There are two kinds of prophesy - self-criticism and teaching about the poor.  Francis is the latter kind.  I suspect there will be a new bishop in Wisconsin - especially with the move away from culture war.  I would love to see Archbishop Gregory get a red hat.  He is a sweet man.  Just the kind Francis favors.  Sadly, it is hard to get rid of the culture warriors.  You can't simply fire them unless they do or say something totally outrageous.  We shall see.
