CWN Editor's Note: In a critique of a statement released by the Jesuit order about the expulsion of Father Marko Rupnik, Father Raymond de Souza sees the Jesuits’ stand as an “obvious attempt to pass the buck.”
Contrary to the complaint of Jesuit superiors, canon law did allow for further disciplinary action against the accused artist, Father de Souza shows. By severing him from their Society, but allowing him to remain a priest, Father de Souza concludes: “The Jesuits appeared content to say that Father Rupnik was not their problem anymore.”
