“Since everything and everyone in Catholic communion is truly inter-related, and the visible nexus of these relations is the bishop,” Cardinal George said, “an insistence on complete independence from the bishop renders a person or institution sectarian, less than fully Catholic. The purpose of our reflections, therefore, is to clarify questions of truth or faith and of accountability or community among all those who claim to be part of Catholic communion.”
It is so refreshing to see that the Bishops are re-establishing their authority regarding the schools in their jurisdiction. It is vitally important, in a world where many who call themselves “Catholic” are confused, that our leaders ensure that “Catholic” schools are truly teaching Catholicism and continuing to monitor the teachings, clarifications, and directives of the Holy See.
