text: Thank you very much for your own fair and accurate assessment and reporting on the problems in Waynesville, and in Charlotte.  Your situations are all too common in the US church, and have been for quite some time now.  In spite of the alternative "facts" which the usual suspects posting here desperately want us to believe,  you are helping to document a notable failure on the part of both priest and bishop to understand, or undertake, their spiritual leadership of all the people.  B XVI attempted to further the cause of the Latin Mass "crowds," but they think that B XVI also gave them a mandate to control their parishes, along with an unalienable privilege to "do it all their way."  They are defending and promoting the "young Traddie whippersnappers" because their dioceses would be even more priest-short without them, and parishes would have to be combined or closed.  THANKS! for speaking up!
