	Excerpts from Bishop Cullena?s Grand Jury Testimony Morning Call September 11, 2011 http://www.mcall.com/news/local/mc-allentown-catholic-bishop-cullen-abuse-2-20110910,0,1103636.story#loop Bishop Edward Cullen: I'm just saying when you ask about the Catholic church, that is what all --that is modus operandi of how things were handled in those days, and it wasn't just the Catholic church. It was all the churches. Deputy Philadelphia District Attorney Charles Gallagher: Well, let me ask you this. Cullen: And I think it's – I think it's better the way they do it today. Gallagher: Why did the Catholic Church listen to their lawyers telling them that this is the law instead of looking into their hearts and their own minds and what they learned in their faith and do the right thing? Why didn't they do that? Bishop Cullen: I think when it comes to issues of this kind, at that time they did follow the law. There is no question about it. And I wish it had been a different setting and a different – a different manner of acting, but unfortunately, that's what happened.
