US bishops' meeting: Disrespect and disunity on full display

US bishops' meeting: Disrespect and disunity on full display 

The bishops are reacting to the inevitable, that the Cardinal Advisor for the North American Church has more clout than the entire USCCB. The Republican Bishops have to know that none of them will get red hats any time soon, so they are acting out against Biden and resisting the fraternal guidance of Francis. That they have taken to lying in the way Trump has is tragic. Bishops should not engage in doublespeak. The question is, how many bishops will fall for their line. One thing is for sure, the Republican bishops need better legal advice. Their understanding of both constitutional law and Dignitatis Humanae is entirely wrong. If some of them know the truth and are going forward anyway then they have sold their souls to the Trumpists. That would be beyond tragic. It would simply be evil.
