Will the Vatican’s upcoming inspection of US seminaries be a strong step in reforming the Mass here in the USA?
I certainly hope it will, but if it’s a whitewash like last time, I think I might join the Greek Orthos…

ROME – The long-awaited Vatican inspection of U.S. Roman Catholic seminaries, which was planned in response to the clergy sex-abuse crisis, is expected to begin in the fall of next year, according to Catholic News Service.
The Vatican will soon publish a three-page questionnaire as a guide for the visits to more than 100 seminaries and other American institutions that help prepare men for the priesthood, CNS said.
Bishop John Nienstedt of New Ulm, Minn., chairman of the U.S. bishops’ Committee on Priestly Formation, said that the issue of homosexuality is expected to be part of the review. The visitation will take up the question of “how seminaries approach celibacy and chastity – either in relationship to heterosexuality or homosexuality – or the temptations or inclinations people have,” Nienstedt said.’
