Political Factoid
"The polarization of the
country [i.e., the U.S.]
has infiltrated the [Catholic]
church in such a way that
I worry we can't see our
way out of it.
"The synod* is supposed to
be about listening, humility,
and willingness to change,
but that's not what [U.S.]
clergy are trained to do.
"There's this unwillingness
among much of the clergy
to be taught anything, and
that's going to be a real
problem."
