‘Tis a sad day that has no women deacons around to get us over the rough spots.

There are, apparently, still some priests left in Ireland for the tens of people who still want the sacraments. Evidence for this claim is found in a story at IrishCatholic.com. It concerns that pungent group, the Ass. of Catholic Priests. Have a look at this spittle-flecked nutty against Francis concerning the deaconette situation.

Have a look if you want your heart rendered.

Pied Piper extraordinaire this Zinn fellow.

Leftist friend of mine some years back was delighted to see the book in his son’s hands (hadn’t known of it) at Carleton College, a top-rank selective school. Oh those professors were hard at their (misguided) task.

Not bad at all, this statement . . .

Were my thoughts (and situation) many decades ago. Honest and forthright, I’d say.

They don’t want no stinkin’ commenters pointing out the obvious.

Who was that masked man? Someone they like.

Look at it this way:

Say what? Isn’t this old news — paying women to have babies, etc., calling it welfare? Encouraging fatherless families?

Where has F-book been all these years?

From the story:

The main practical objection to married priests is simply that the infrastructure and hierarchy of the Catholic Church is not equipped for this change. They don’t know how to do it and don’t want to do it.

Pregnant that, in middle of a, may I say it? Brilliant rundown of pro’s and cons, by a married priest, now for 13 years.

This not wanting to with it, however, is for some of us, the most interesting. Plop a married guy into the midst of an entirely bachelor community and . . .

As I say, very interesting. The twain shall meet, I think, with some difficulty . . .

Any plans for enhancing (or preserving) ward services?

Hey, I know the specter of socialism haunts the 40th Ward. (See new alderman at the podium.) But will our man make time for some good old-fashioned capitalistic provision of the day-to-day? Staying tuned at this end, let me tell you.
