text: Thank you - MSW could have balanced this by sharing the bias of Imbelli - fits into the First Things world.  One thought - NY City diocesan priest who spent his life at Boston College and would cite his *pastoral experience* because he choose to reside in a parish.  We used to call that a *week end* priest who masqueraded as pastoral.  Imbelli is retired and has grown more and more reactive and conservative since the election of Francis.  Like Bishop Barron, his expertise is in the European church of the Renaissance - that is only a small part of ressourcement, MSW.  Imbelli has no experience with the missionary church, third world, Asia,South America, Africa - a church that is the image of a hospital and its ministers as sheperds.
