Sydney's Lord Mayor Says Jesus Wouldn't Approve of Cardinal Pell

It is always nice to know that others have the correct measure of the Roman Catholic hierarchy. Among such people are Clover Moore, Lord Mayor of Sydney, Australia. In a recent interview Moore had some pretty direct and accurate comments about Cardinal George Pell, the Vatican's leading anti-gay mouth piece in Australia. Here are some highlights from Live News:
*

Sydney Lord Mayor Clover Moore has unloaded on the Archbishop of Sydney, Cardinal George Pell, suggesting that Jesus would not approve of him. When asked about Cardinal Pell’s attitude towards gay people the Lord Mayor didn't pull her punches.“Christ was a radical. He despised the Establishment and the Pharisees. He threw the money-changers out of the temple,” she said.“I liken certain church officials today to the Pharisees that Christ took exception to.”

What is interesting is that Moore herself is Catholic.
