Editor: The following will be a link to a blog engaged in a dialogue with the Boston Archdiocese, which is now trying to engage bloggers in "dialogue". It's a much better tactic than ignoring them, or trying to say negative things about them that aren't necessarily true, like when they call bloggers, "uninformed", "meanspirited" and things like that.
[Bryan Hehir Exposed] Those following the blog know that we have had the pleasure of comments by Boston Archdiocese Vicar General, Fr. Richard Erikson and a request for dialogue. A post by Paul Melanson at La Salette Journey entitled, "Constructive Criticism or Condemnation" prompted us to now tell you exactly what has resulted from our interaction with him. Today's blog was written last night and in our review queue ready for posting when we received an email back from the Vicar General first thing this morning. Advance apologies for the level of detail. Grab a cup of iced tea, iced coffee, or lemonade and read on.When Fr. Richard Erikson was first named Vicar General in 2006, we were impressed by his background—former St. John's Seminary instructor, and U.S. Air Force Lt. Col and chaplain for seven years who had been deployed to Ballad, Iraq to minister to injured soldiers at the center of the insurgency and most attacked sector in Iraq for a 40-day tour. What was not to like about this person coming back to Boston?
But, now four years later, well, we'll just say something about being in the Boston archdiocesan hierarchy must get to people and wear them out after a while.
