"A Venezuelan bishop, speaking at the Amazon Synod, has remarked that at a time when the Amazon region (among others) suffers from a severe shortage of priests, there is an enormous number of priests now living in Rome. 'It cannot be that they’re all studying in Rome,' said Bishop Johnny Eduardo Reyes of Puerto Ayacucho." [1]
Hypocrisy aside, is this not human nature? How many priests (shepherds) deep down really want to work among "sheep" in the Amazon region and smell like "sheep" when they can live in Rome and smell like a rose?
