From the article:

"He overlooked it [celibacy] and put his own issues first," said Kuta.

This is a symptom of the deeper problem in the church.  It may well be that the Bishop believes he can't make that change, or doesn't believe in it.  But that "talking past" what the laity is saying gets to the core of so many of the church's issues.  Until bishops can accept that there can be wisdom in the counsel of the laity, the church will remain vulnerable to more scandals, and will be less and less relevant to the younger generations of Catholics.

There's simply no excuse for substituting the bishops priorities for those of his flock.  I doubt seriously a bishop would be happy if he took his car in for an oil change, and got it back without the oil change, but instead had new tires installed (and billed...)
