[edit] Mahoney

"Mahony has worked extensively to prevent or impede investigations of sexual abuse by priests. He appealed one attempt to gain access to church documents relating to sexual abuse all the way to the Supreme Court. According to legal experts this case fit a pattern where church authorities have attempted to prevent the release of documents on First Amendment or other constitutional grounds."

This was removed for lack of citation.

[edit] Holy Days of Obligation

This needs drastic reduction. Some of it belongs in a higher level document. All info needed be repeated. Also, believers know this already and it bores the daylights out of those who aren't. A good reason for shortening it to a couple of lines and pointing to a reference someplace. Student7 (talk) 11:52, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

I disagree. The material appears to be unique to this archdiocese and I found it interesting to see how this archdiocese differs from others. ·:· Will Beback ·:· 22:22, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Pastoral regions

This seems almost unique to LA. My archdiocese don't have them, as far as I can determine on the web. Sydney does. Cincinatti uses the term in a very different fashion. An editor might want to comment on the uniqueness. Student7 (talk) 11:55, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
