What emerges clearly from Render unto Rome is that in the Catholic Church failure is constantly rewarded. In a particularly egregious case, Cardinal Francis George of Chicago, three years after the American Church’s introduction of a youth charter, put an accused paedophile back in ministry despite warnings from his advisory board. The priest reoffended, went to jail, and the archdiocese had to stump up for the victims. Cardinal George was promptly elected president of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops.
Who better, right? You want a USCoCB President with experience in these matters ... for when they inevitably arise again.
