Guilty of Low Expectations?

Why Cardinal O’Malley should be pope by Xavier L. Suarez

What has the archbishop of Boston done to correct wayward theologians (Jesuits and their associates) at Boston College? I do not think he has cleaned house since I left Boston. How many heterodox priests remain in good standing with the diocese? Maybe I'm missing the "prudential reasoning."

May God preserve us from spineless bishops.

Perhaps the author of the op-ed piece has different priorities: "He was unofficially but universally recognized as Hispanic, and it didn’t hurt that he had obtained a doctorate in Spanish and Portuguese literature at Catholic University. Those of us who were educated there were often flabbergasted when he outperformed us in Spanish fluency."
