Pope Ought to Retire, Boise Priest Says By Bill Roberts Idaho Statesman April 5, 2010 http://www.idahostatesman.com/2010/04/05/1142390/pope-ought-to-retire-boise-priest.html A Boise Catholic priest says 82-year-old Pope Benedict XVI should retire and make room for a stronger leader to navigate through the church's latest sex abuse crisis. The Rev. Thomas Faucher, the priest at St. Mary's Catholic Church, said the "pope may be a saintly man, but he is much too old to lead the church through this mess." Michael Driscoll, Idaho Catholic diocese bishop, declined comment. Get more details in Tuesday's Idaho Statesman. broberts@idahostatesman.com |
