As I  agree most of these comments expressing disagreement with speech, the "conservative" archbishop reveals a) that he himself is a "cafeteria Catholic," having chosen some things he considers a "litmus" test for being a really "good Catholic," and b) that he places himself squarely with the Pagan Constantine who chose conformity [and external overt belonging] rather than the diversity inherent in the four-ness of the Gospels, and c) that his task is to create an elitist "church" of ritual, strictness of morality and superiority of "truth" rather than a community of struggling and sinful seekers, who believe in God our Father.
