Fr. Dowd & Bevaqua are both on the CFP governing committee. How are they both

Signing off on this? The selection committee is chosen for its “integrity”. Can they really say this process has integrity? It does only in the sense that the committee does what it wants without regard to the application of any consistent rules.

Imposing corporate abuse, neglect and greed on deserving victims.

One nit - Fr Dowd is on the CFB Board of Managers. Bevaqua is on the CFP Management Committee.

Both are separated from the Selection Committee. But yes, they both do have influence on the selection criteria.

You'd think a re-evaluation will occur. It's clear the results are suspect. Need an investigation.

Corruption is everywhere. But despite it, the Catholic Church remains the sole source of truth.

The Church has never stated its leaders are free from sin, only that Doctrine is free from error.

If you were looking for a church that says its leaders are without sin, look for a cult, not a legitimate church.

had some massive holes in it. Unless you approve of certain priest behavior.

I don't think you understand what doctrine means.

Doctrine is the innerrant teaching of the Church as derived from the Gospel and Church tradition as interpreted and defined by the Magisterium. Are you saying these scandals are in the Gospel or tradition of the Church? As that is just clearly wrong.

Or possibly you're ascribing the actions of an individual, sinful actions, to be condoned activity. And that also is very clearly wrong. In fact the Church has forcefully condemned and criticized those activities. I hope that helps you.

You aren't making sense. Doctrine has always condemned those sins, and still does.

I posted pointing out the difference between (1) the sins of individuals, and (2) the Doctrine of the Church. You then posted acting as if those two very different things are somehow the same. Doctrine is not decided or changed by sinful acts of Church leaders. If the sins of recent Church leaders is a problem for you, then it should have been a problem all along, starting with Judas.

No, it definitely does not. Church doctrine never approved of abuse.

Not in the slightest. It's the one true Church of Christ. And corruption abounds.
