Bishop Pilla of Cleveland Resigns at 73

Bishop Anthony Pilla, Bishop of Cleveland since 1981, has asked the Vatican to be replaced. (Hat tip: Amy Welborn)

Bishop Pilla is a former President of the USCCB (draw your own conclusions) and is known as (how shall I charitably put this?) an "innovator."

Here's an article which discusses some of these "innovations" as well as Bishop Pilla's "pastoral" approach to giving communion to pro-abortion politicians.

Pray that Pope Benedict will choose wisely in finding a replacement for Bishop Pilla.
