Cardinal Bernard Law Celebrates Mass

Posted on April 11, 2005

What a slap in the face to Boston Catholics: Cardinal Bernard Law celebrated Mass in mourning for Pope John Paul II in St. Peter's Basilica today, in spite of protests from victims' rights groups. You remember Cardinal Law? He's the guy that moved known pedophile priests from parish to parish, instead of turning them into the police. Many Catholics in Boston called for his resignation, but the Vatican called him to Rome and gave him the job of being archpriest at the Basilica of St. Mary Major in Rome, one of the four basilicas which report directly to the Vatican. Some punishment.
