Catholic League president Bill Donohue comments on a news article in yesterday\’s New York Times on the Catholic Church:
A priest, Fr. Roy Bourgeois, decides to break with the Catholic Church\’s teachings on ordination and \”ordains\” a woman in an illicit ceremony. He is given three years to recant, but he refuses, and is now threatened with excommunication. He is a hero to Church critics, especially the New York Times. Had he been a Times reporter who decided to break with the newspaper\’s editorial position on abortion—putting a positive spin on pro-life leaders, while casting aspersions on abortion-rights advocates—he would not have lasted three weeks. So much for the glory of dissent.
