I am not a Catholic and I do not agree with Catholic doctrines on many (actually, most) issues. But I have known Bishop Henry personally for over 18 years since his arrival in Calgary and count him as one of the smartest, most intelligent, wisest and kindest people I have ever known. He is retiring due to a rapidly deteriorating health issue and has been physically suffering for a long time before finally deciding to ask the Pope to allow for his retirement.
Disagree with spiritual/religious stances all you want. Just don't be an a$$.
