I repeat, we should all be on our knees in gratitude that GOD does not have a Zero Tolerance policy

NCR belatedly discovers that there are bloody good reasons that accused priests are owed due process, however heinous that of which they may be accused; good reasons that the Church may not lightly relinquish responsibilty for Her priests; and good reasons for Bishops remembering their paternal obligations toward their priests.

We human beings are intellectually lazy and gullible, and we need rules in place to protect us from easy fixes, and simple assumptions.

The Bible gives us ample proof that God does not believe in zero tolerance.
