A call to local Catholics from one of their own

From The National Catholic Reporter's site today--a respondent to their article on the Father Shawn Ratigan/Bishop John Finn scandal, because that's what it is--it's both their scandals, not just Fr. Ratigan's:

WAKE UP FELLOW CATHOLICS!

WAKE UP FELLOW CATHOLICS! DEMAND:
1) That all members of the diocesan review board resign in protest for being ignored.
2) That a local grand jury investigates the bishop/diocese's action for possible criminal conduct.
3) That lay people (male and female) be put on all diocesan boards overseeing priests: seminary, ordaination, accredition, personnel, etc.
WITHHOLD YOUR MONEY UNTIL THE CHURCH REFORMS!

Great ideas, all.  Kudos to you, Mr. Parker.
