The Archdiocese of Santa Fe is looking for a new archbishop and not because it wants to.
Archbishop Michael Sheehan just turned 75 and that means he has to retire.
In a very candid conversation KOB Eyewitness News 4’s Tom Joles talked about him, the church, and that rumored half million dollar house.
“Have you ever questioned whether there’s really a God?” asked KOB’s Tom Joles.
“No. It’s beyond my pay grade,” joked Sheehan. …
“If you could change one thing about the church, what would it be?” questioned Joles.
“Holier priests. There wouldn’t be any of this sexual abuse garbage. And stuff like that and meanness and whatever. Holier priests. That’s the thing I would like to see happen,” answered Sheehan.
Sheehan understands flawed humans, which compelled Joles to ask him if Sheehan has stumbled in the job at all or had anything to regret.
