"Lousy leadership is a disaster"

Eugene Michael is calling our attention to an interview given by Fr. John Corapi to Patrick Novecosky of Legatus Magazine.

... the vast majority of Catholics aren’t even going to Church, so we shouldn’t wonder that the Church has been losing its influence on an increasingly secularized society.

You have to ask yourself why people have drifted away. I’m sure there are a lot of societal reasons. We don’t have control over those reasons, but we have control over the reasons inside the Church. You can start with the top. There is an old saying: “The fish stinks from the head down.” Lousy leadership is a disaster.

Eugene's post is here. The interview is here.
