Too Good To Be Buried Among the Comments

In response to this statement from Cardinal Egan quoted in yesterday's New York Times:

'"They average around six people at the early Mass.”

He slapped the arm of his chair. “Is there any person in the world who has sanity who would keep open deserted churches?” he said. “I made a good move.”

A reader asks:

"What is the matter with this man? He thinks six attendees at morning Mass constitutes a deserted church. Doesn't he realize that a religion of over a billion people began with 12 men huddled in a room? "
