...troubling to think that these acts of violence are becoming a trend and may represent a greater anger that isn’t being addressed by reluctant acts of compensation by the Church. The frustration felt in parishes—not only in Massachusetts and Kentucky but all over America—is reaching a boiling point. The Church seems to think that the resignation of Cardinal Bernard F. Law ’53 and the $10 million settlement of a lawsuit paid out to victims of abuse in Massachusetts dioceses is the end of the scandal, but justice still...
...allowing this public anger and concern to go unaddressed, the Church is letting the misdeeds of an unfortunate few overshadow the good to which a vast majority of Catholic priests dedicate their lives, not to mention tarnish the reputation of their honorable profession.

A self-made man in every sense of the word, Silk’s success in life embodies a severely warped version of the American dream—a light-skinned black man passing himself off as a Jewish intellectual. Newcomer Wentworth Miller is startlingly good...
...think he did well. Certainly if I was a Californian, I certainly would have voted for him. I think there is a tremendous anger about the establishment out there. I think Gray Davis personified it, in the sense that taxes and the economy are out of control. You need someone to come in from the outside and challenge the system...
