Father Z of all people agreed that the priest probably jumped the gun. <br /><br />She set a trap for him and he fell right into it. He wasn't going to win with the MSM regardless, but the church has an excuse to discipline him based on "due process."CJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13883761718979175423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25740524.post-61885454617021632062012-03-12T11:25:14.782-04:002012-03-12T11:25:14.782-04:00This pretty much sums up why I became Orthodox.

When authority becomes an end in itself, it is no longer authority but a cult of personality. I simply do not trust the Catholic hierarchy to protect the faith. It is that simple. They can call me if they ever decide to go back to doing their job. What they believe their job to be at the present time, I have no clue. None whatsoever.Tawserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12823690750419031274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25740524.post-5382451564167125752012-03-12T08:37:45.459-04:002012-03-12T08:37:45.459-04:00Isn't to attend mass anywhere the same as atte...Isn't to attend mass anywhere the same as attendig, well, anywhere?

And no one...May God strengthen him in this trial. <br /><br />And no one escapes the last judgment, not even if he carries a crozier. The Catholic church went mad a long time ago. The water is getting warmer. Will the frogs stay in?Matushka Annahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10522097149212770814noreply@blogger.com
