An interesting article


on the internal politics of the American Catholic Bishops during a specific period of the last century.

The End of the Bernardin Era

"The rise, dominance, and decline of a culturally accommodating Catholicism"
A couple of caveats: Note that the tone of the article may well be coloured by the leanings of the author; note, too, that I offer the article as is - I am in no way an expert on the internal politics of the American Catholic Bishops so I can't confirm the veracity of any of it. I neither know of them, nor care to get myself mired down in internal Church political debate. Anyone who cares for the state of their soul might want to stay away from it...
