Bishop Wilton Gregory’s meeting on Saturday with his clergy about his expensive home is just silly.

[Atlanta Journal-Constitution]

These clergy have all sworn an oath to respect and obey Gregory. So this is like a king “consulting” with his subjects.

Gregory should stop making excuses and start living humbly.

And keep in mind Gregory’s extravagance – and similar extravagance by his colleagues in Camden and Newark and elsewhere – the next time you hear Catholic officials whine that they lack sufficient funds to adequately compensate suffering victims of pedophile priests.
