Gee, I wonder why the Pope is unwilling to take any advice from the dude who's been CatholicLite for all of 5 minutes and has a rep for humping couches...
“'I was the most senior Catholic in the US government,' Vance recalls, affronted, '& the Vatican seemed unwilling to move its moral guidance....'”

“The Scottish writer Stephen Daisley [noted the] 'breezy impertinence' [by which] Vance 'tells the pope... that he is in error on Church doctrine.'"
“Vance admits that, about ‘half the time these days, we attend Mass at home.’ (Your book is called “Communion,” my brother!)”
