Yes, he believes a
lot of things the Church was wise to reconsider. One of the reasons I refuse to see "The Passion" - the less publicity his brand of "Catholicism" gets, the better. He gives people a view of Catholics that I'm very glad is now far from true, but those who aren't involved in the present day Church and/or study it don't know this. Misinformation can be a very dangerous thing.
