A columnist lists long-reported problems — #’s decline, school closings, clergy abuse, plus Abp C. going “calmly ballistic,” a Sneed item, over dearth of women, nuns, and altar girls at his installation ceremony.
Almost any pre-conciliar bishop coming in to the devastated vineyard that is Chicago would begin emergency triage measures to stop the dire crisis of Faith in the city. He might start by cleaning house of heretical celebrity clergy like Fr. Pfleger, restoring sanity to the city’s liturgy, ensuring the Catholic Faith is taught in schools and from pulpits, loudly condemning the city’s “Catholic” yet pro-abortion politicians, and promptly punishing predator priests who were allowed to run wild for 50 years in the “Church of the New Springtime.”But not Archbishop Cupich. Absolutely no level of devastation, moral suffering, mass apostasy, heresy, or paganism can hope to offer a reality check to the good bishop. Why? Because the Archbishop, like his Modernist forerunners, proudly believes his own ideology to be infallible. After all, the presence of the divine has welled up in the people (aka liberal Catholics) who have gathered together to express their divine sentiment as a consensus opinion. That consensus opinion, to Archbishop Cupich, is, de facto, the voice of God.
And the fight goes on . . .

This bishop, like the Pope who chose him, is pathetic. Is the Church ever going to have compassion for the white, native Americans who work hard, pay the taxes that support the half of the people here getting taxpayer money? Let the Illegals go back to their own countries and fix the problems there. I don’t want them flooding here, breaking our system into another mess like they are fleeing.
