St. Peter vs. Bishop Lennon: A leadership disaster
Published: Sunday, August 22, 2010, 4:05 AM
The year is 2010. It is a world in which thousands are dying in Pakistan and religious extremism is making the world a very dangerous place.
Here in Cleveland, with corruption still unresolved and many social problems, we have a bishop of the Roman Catholic Church who has single-handedly done four destructive things: proved why a Protestant Reformation was necessary, cheapened the legacy of openness of Vatican I and II as well as the legacy of Pope John XXIII and former Bishop Anthony Pilla, eradicated all interfaith relationships between himself and others in the region, and reinforced theological absurdity by suggesting that a person's immortal soul may be in jeopardy from receiving Communion in episcopally unauthorized spaces.
Talk about relevant leadership.
Rev. Dr. Kenneth W. Chalker, Cleveland
Chalker is the senior pastor of University Circle United Methodist Church.
