Commanding Officer or Teaching Bishop

My heart cries that the situation in Phoenix should come to the point where the Bishop had to exercise his authority to revoke St. Joseph Hospital's use of "Catholic" in its title. I pray for the Bishop because it must hurt him to have to do this and I pray for the hospital that they continue to provide the best care possible.

In the articles I have read over the past year either the Bishop or the media reporting seemed more interested in enforcing a code rather than seeking ways to agree.
