This writer doesn't understand why good Catholics who see & hear the things coming from the current occupant of the Chair of Peter continue to be apologists for objectively indefensible actions and statements. One wonders could any absurdity be declared or outrageous act be performed by the current occupant which would cause them to stop, re-evaluate, and ask themselves, "Exactly who and what am I really defending?!"
