Francis Does Not Remove For Incompetence - So Why Had Viganò to Go?
Monsignor Dario Viganò’s fate is different from the fate of other troubled prelates, writes pro-Francis John Allen on cruxnow.com (March 22).
He notices that Francis typical stands by the people he has chosen, when they come under fire.
Allen names Chilean Bishop Juan Barros criticised for allegedly having covered up sexual abuses, and Monsignor Gian Battista Ricca, a high-placed prelate in the Vatican bank and director of Casa Santa Marta, who in the past had problems with homosexual behavour.
So the question remains why Viganò had to go.
