I'm not surprised by this. Too many bishops today act like tyrannical monarchs who will not brook anything that smacks of criticism. Funny how two thirds of the bishops had no problem covering up the abuse problem and moving the pederast around. The double standard described by Dietrich von Hildebrand in The Devastate Vineyard continues:
The drivel of heretics, both priests and laymen, is tolerated; the bishops tacitly acquiesce to the poisoning of the faithful. But they want to silence the faithful believers who take up the cause of orthodoxy.Pray for Wylie and for Cardinal Dolan who has much for which to answer.
Fr Wylie, being a diplomat and living in the New York Archdiocese most certainly knew he would be giving up his life for his sheep when he spoke the truth to us smelly ones. God love him for that.
ReplyDeleteThe message that any priest who crosses His Jolliness will be gone in a NY minute was very clear to the laity in both the 2008 AND the 2012 elections when His Hilarity insisted on non-partisanship....even as the Dems promised less God and more calfs.
Again, God bless Fr. Wylie. (Great name for him, don't you think?)
Stange how Fr Z scubbed his website of the whole Fr. Wylie affair. Yesterdays postings are all gone. You don't think his Jollyness would threaten Fr. Z would you?
