Agree with the sentiments, spaw, yet -

...he was a newborn baby once, and his parents loved him, I expect.
And he was a toddler, probably fell off his bike and hurt himself.
He may even have fallen in love as a youngster.
As a young priest he very likely was full of ideals and a wish to change the world.
As an adult he did his best. I might not agree with all his decisions (I don't, as a matter of fact), but hey...
...he was a newborn baby once.

So this non-Catholic feels sad. For the baby.
