Mr. Mahoney Speaks...Out of Hiding...Unafraid

There's a saying in the Bible: "Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother's eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye?" Cardinal of Sin, Mahoney, recently conducted an interview:

What has happened in the last few years is that we as bishops have had opportunities to have a public voice and role, but have been very hesitant, and just kind of sat out a number of these things. I’m thinking of local things -- for example, police abuse and overreactions in certain communities. We’ve had a lot of that across the United States. I think bishops normally would have said something, saying police are overreacting and categorizing people in ethnic groups, but in many cases they just remained silent. The gap, the chasm, between the wealthy and the middle class … the fact there’s almost no middle class left. The minimum wage, affordable housing, we just kind of sat it out, because we were afraid to appear above the sandbags. We were hiding. … Had this come up two years ago, three years ago, I don’t know what the reality would have been then. I just know that in our archdiocese, this issue is so important that even during these years I always spoke up. [emphasis added]

No mention of the molestation and rape of boys and the suicides committed because of pediphile priests. Disgusting.

The immoral Mahoney and his ilk have blood and more on their hands and are the reason for the continued demise of the Catholic Church. This issue is important because it means MORE MONEY for the church. The Catholic Church seems to be returning to its roots of corruption, greed and social injustice at the expense of its soul.

I'd like to help Mr. Mahoney remove that plank...and then hit him over the head with it.
