PERCEPTION...
COMPASSION....and
SPIRIT

These shepherd virtues are often scoffed at in the name of  alleged "higher" attributes, say: CONFORMITY, CLARITY, ORDER. 

As Pope Francis said recently, we can lazily take false comfort in black and white rules OR we can also be open to the risk of learning from His tremendous gift, "the flow of life." A new pro-life message, maybe? 

Clearly, Archbishop Quinn surprised folks when he opened up himself to perception, compassion, and spirit experienced in the flow of life, and eschewed the minimal expectations from on high to "just get those uppity Vatican II women in line...for their own eternal good of course.."  

Thanks, Ken.
