Article by the Rev. Richard John Neuhaus about American dissent to official Vatican positions on sexuality as well as criticism of some of Pope Benedict’s early appointments of bishops including promoting the archbishop of San Francisco, William Levada, to succeed himself at the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith as the church’s doctrinal gatekeeper and the appointment of Salt Lake City Bishop George Niederauer to succeed Levada in San Francisco, both of whom are seen as liberal on matters of sexuality.
