Dissing the Pope | National Catholic Reporter

Dissing the Pope | National Catholic Reporter by MSW.  MGB: Cardinal Burke is an older Baby Boomer, who unlike the President, my wife and myself, thought that authority was a good thing, as was the War in Viet Nam.  He wants someone to tell him, and even more so all those pesky parishoners, how to think rather than how to think for themselves.  He is pathological and his views are no longer of any consequence accept as a reflection of those who share them - who should be treated with mercy as they become ready to find out whether their belief that God is an Ogre is really true.  (By the way, its not).  As for Pater Franesco, he has certainly had to deal with plenty of the hyper-orthodox in his See in South America.  I will leave the personnel moves regarding Burke and whether he is to be censured to the Holy Father.
