Yet, nothing is done. <br /><br /> I think the sad reality of most bishops is to try to maintain their "dirty little secret": they actually have very little power. This seems to contradict what I first wrote, but it does not. A few bishops actualize that power - yes, they may be persecuted, maligned etc. but they will have done their duty. Duty is to defend and promote the Faith, and by extension the Morals of the Church. Permitting laymen and other assorted paid "professionals to run a diocese is <br />immoral and a dereliction of duty. The crisis of the faith, is also the crisis of bishops.Baronahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06265555388172261643noreply@blogger.com
