I can understand in part why the Church discounted Fitzgerald’s warnings. His letters are so full of venom concerning pederast priests – nobody likes child molesters, of course, but Fitzgerald sounds a little nuts – that I can certainly see why some looked askance at his desert island recommendations. Alas, they threw the baby out with the bathwater, with disastrous consequences.

The Reporter also supplied copies of Fitzgerald’s correspondence. Boy, a fellow really has to suck up to those bishops.

Maybe he's bizarre, but his suggestion is less bizarre than what they actually wound up doing, which was nothing.
