Mariano: Remember the good they do

The only good that they do... is fulling their pockets with money... with power and control over their people...  Ann

======================================

In years past, people in authority were given deference and treated respectfully. Teachers, politicians, religious leaders and others were assumed to be acting in our best interests. All that has changed. Now, we often assume the worst.
If a church is going to close, like Our Lady of Mount Carmel, we assume someone is lying. Fighting to keep a beloved church together is a labor of love and faith. Mt. Carmel has been my parish for decades and I cried when it closed. Those struggling to keep it open should be applauded. But questioning the integrity of the pastor, a very good man, or being disrespectful to someone who has served all of us in that community should not.
