text: In no way do I wish to diminish the issues swirling around the stated issue I. This article, bit I think there's something else of note here as well.
  
  By wording things the way it des, the Vatican seems to be trying to create wiggle room for itself.  But as we've seen over and over, there are times when black and white might be a better approach.   How few of us can u derstand why the bishops have so badly handled the abuse mess?  Or this issue of gay priests? Or women?
  
  I would hope that this "cleverness" on the part of the insiders could come to an end.  They seem to still want everything both ways...  If the laity is to believe things are black and white, why not the bishops?   I think this dualit mindset is not good for the church these days.
