Archbishop Wuerl questions Georgetown for hosting event honoring Biden
April 24, 2009

The Washington archdiocese noted that Georgetown itself was not giving the award to Biden, but the archbishop was concerned about "the confusion that happens by having an event by entities that are at odds with Catholic teaching."
