Word is out today that yet another Bishop of the Catholic Church is stepping down from his post in Ireland, on the heels of yet another sexual abuse case there:
Pope accepts resignation of another Irish bishop "DUBLIN (AP) —
Pope Benedict XVI on Wednesday accepted the resignation of another Irish bishop, leaving seven of Ireland's 26 Catholic dioceses without one and raising expectations of major cutbacks in the size of the Irish church following child-abuse scandals...Hegarty also is expected to feature in an upcoming church-authorized investigation into the cover-up of clerical child abuse in Hegarty's previous diocese, Raphoe." So, you see, Bishop Finn? That's how it's done. That's how you could--and should--do it. It can be done. And you know? The sooner would be the better, too. Just saying.
