His holding this is no surprise. He’d endanger if not ruin his position as a member of Pope Francis’ first team if he were to choose otherwise.
But have a look at his explanation:
Cardinal Cupich said, “Well, we have been asked about that already and we responded that that is not our policy and we, as a matter of practice, don’t comment on the policies of other dioceses.”
What’s noteworthy? His use of the royal “we.”
He definitely plays the ruler whom to cross is a big mistake for the climber.
