So sorry to this story framed as "good" Archbishop Cupich versus mean "combative" conservative Card. George. That really weaknes this piece.

Bishop Cupich will do well in Chicago, precisely because he shares the same qualities as Cardinal George - humility, love for the Church, and love of Christ. http://mtncatholic.com/2014/11/16/5-reasons-archbishop-cupich-is-perfect-for-chicago-or-anywhere/

No one wants peace more than Ukrainians. But we cannot ignore evil and injustice.
Some voices advocate for immediate peace in Ukraine at any cost, but the world—and both political and religious leaders—must reject the illusion of a pacifism that ignores the harsh realities of evil and injustice.
