I would like to point out that this post is excellent! It shows a great behind the scenes view point of the Beatification of John Paul II. Jesuit Scholastic Mike Rogers has a great writing style and is truly an original. Put his site in your bookmarks.

Fr. Milton T. Walsh, "To always be thinking somehow about Jesus": The Prologue of Ludolph's Vita Christi
From the San Francisco Chronicle, October 5, 2002:
The Rev. Milton T. Walsh was booked on charges of two counts of lewd or lascivious acts with a child under 14 years old and is free on $100,000 bail. He was placed on leave in August from St. Patrick's Seminary in Menlo Park, where he has been a professor of theology since 1997.

Have you had personal dealings with Fr. Milton?
