Vatican II was just too ecumenical, right?

Well, the prelate got what he wanted. Any attention is better than none, apparently.

This is true I consider it free publicity for our cause.
The story is starting to appear at other news outlets.
I am also starting to see the same Catholics that rushed to protect bishops that were involved with the abuse of hundreds of thousands of children again rally to the bishops side, some things never change.
