 | | ROMAN CATHOLICISM
 
 Bishop John T. Steinbock sat near a crucifix and regularly looked at the image of Christ on the cross as he thought deeply and responded to my series of questions. **
 A thin man of medium height, he has dark, thinning hair and dark brown eyes. In his forties, he wore a short-sleeved black shirt and a white Roman collar. His manner is humble, his countenance peaceful. He speaks softly and simply, calling himself "just a parish priest." 
 
My assistant, Chris Jensen, a former magazine writer, interviewed Bishop Steinbock at his office in Orange, California. Most of this chapter is based on his recorded answers and Chris’s remarks.
