Susan Archibald from the victim group The Linkup in her statement on Law’s resignation:
- In terms of the laity: Boston Catholics have achieved a strong step in reclaiming their church. This should encourage other Catholics to become involved and push for positive change in their dioceses. The church belongs to the people, not just the ordained.
No, the Church belongs neither to the people nor the ordained, but to Jesus Christ. And it’s that absolutely faulty ecclesiology that is the root of the problem for so many of the so-called reformers.
