CWN Editor's Note: In an interview with the National Catholic Register, Bishop Thomas Paprocki of Springfield (IL) commented on Cardinal Robert McElroy’s latest essay.

“I think it’s very convenient to try to hide behind Pope Francis and say, ‘Well, if you disagree with me, you’re really disagreeing with Pope Francis,’” said Bishop Paprocki. “But I think the reality is contrary to that.”
