Back in 1973 von Hildebrand called the bishops' dereliction of their duties to be "one of the most horrifying and widespread diseases of the Church today." Of course he had seen the outright rebellion to Humanae Vitae and the Land O' Lakes rebellion staged by Catholic colleges. Von Hildebrand then rebukes those same bishops for persecuting those who try to speak out for the True Church. I've no doubt that Von Hildebrand himself suffered at the hands of more than one derelict bishop.
The latest example of such a strange prelate is perhaps Cardinal George of Chicago. Recently he bestowed an award on notorious race-baiter and dissident Father Michael Pfleger (see several previous posts on this blog) while trying to silence Tom Roesser, a faithful Catholic writer.
