Excommunicate her? Don't bother, she has already left.

Judge Sheila O'Brien published an op ed piece in today's Chicago Tribune which definitely caught my attention. (article here). In short, she lambastes the Catholic Church with unsubstantiated allegations, manufactured arguments, and ad hominem arguments. When she states, "We have waited for the civil authorities to empanel grand juries and bring indictments, but that has not happened," I wonder why as a sitting judge she hasn't done anything? She accuses the Church of protecting pedophiles but fails to cite a single instance. She claims the "hierarchy" will not open their books so they can see where the money goes, so I assume she has never reviewed the reports issued by the Archdiocese in which she resides which are available on line and published in the Archdiocesan paper.
Her piece is entitled, "Excommunicate me please!" I can only assume she lacks the courage of her apparent convictions.
