Cardinal Farrell & Cardinal O’Malley Pass the Buck on the Cardinal McCarrick Homosexual Predation & Pedophilia Scandal

(link repaired)

. . .here’s some world-class buck-passing in the form of a McCarrick column by Boston’s Cardinal Sean O’Malley.  The headline itself tells quite a story:   

POLICY NEEDED TO ADDRESS BISHOPS’ VIOLATIONS OF THE VOWS OF CELIBACY   

. . .policy needed! Well, there you go.  More concise than Cardinal Joseph Tobin’s post-McCarrick view that the bishops must “articulate standards that will assure high standards,” certainly. . .
