KANSAS CITY, Mo. —Some Kansas City area Catholics are split after learning of Kansas City Bishop Robert Finn’s resignation.
After a midday Mass at Redemptorist Church in Kansas City, some said Finn was driven from office.
“They’re not being fair. They’re putting it all on his back and he has people working under him,” said Virginia Vigliaturo.
“Well, it’s unfortunate that it had to come to that, but it was probably the wisest thing the Pope could do,” said Ed Stewart, who attended Mass.
Stewart said he liked Finn, but added he thought is resignation would solve a lot of political problems in the diocese.
