The conference’s proposed plan would have established an independent lay-led commission to investigate allegations against bishops. The Cupich-Wuerl plan would instead send allegations against bishops to be investigated by their metropolitan archbishops, along with archdiocesan review boards. Metropolitans themselves would be investigated by their senior suffragan bishops.
It has become clear that the Catholic Church prefers to do its own dirty laundry, assuming that it gets around to doing it in the first place, rather than sending it out to the cleaners for fear that they will uncover so much dirt that cannot be removed easily.
That Catholic Church has shown that it is no different from any other non-religious institution that has for its primary objective which is the need for self-preservation in order to continue to operate as an on-going concern without regard to those for whom it exists to serve.
The Church for which God sacrificed His only Son is not this Catholic Church which is mired in scandals and politics and run by hypocrites and unholy men who show no signs of humility and poverty and no interest in spending time to "lead the souls entrusted to their care toward an intimate relationship with the Lord." [2] If their souls are not already dammed, may they waste no time in seeking forgiveness and mercy through repentence and supplication before God while restoring the Catholic Church that Christ by His crucifixion, death and resurrection had raised in three days.
