"All-Male, Celibate Catholic Priesthood Is An Embarrassing Relic" By JOHN VEAL

...." can anyone doubt that women priests would be less likely to protect their deviant peers?Just as Pope Urban silenced Galileo but not his truth, Rome today has banned discussion of a female priesthood. Yet the “sense of the faithful” has moved beyond the sexism and sexual dread of Church leadership."

"Bishop Finn, your people are angry. Your many good priests are humiliated. I do not call on you to resign or to implement weak reforms of the current system. I call on you to speak out for sweeping reform of the priesthood — for women’s ordination and optional celibacy. That would be more powerful than any apology."

A Grand Jury investigation should take place as soon as possible.

Bishop Finn hid one pedophile that we know about, but we were lucky to find that one. There are certainly others.

If you are Catholic at all, you should read the first 6 pages of the Phil Grand Jury report at
http://www.philadelphiadistrictattorney.com/images/Grand_Jury_Report.pdf to see what they found when they did an investigation in Philadelphia.

You should demand an investigation in Kansas CIty to see what else has been covered up.
