    uh boy. So much wrong, so much wrong. Men who are attracted to the priesthood for all the wrong reasons. These flamers make the worst priests. I remember one well in our parish, he ran the "AIDS ministry" and drove a convertible sports car and wore civvies. I approached him one day when we had a family crisis. You never saw such dead eyes. He was totally disinterested. What do you expect when you have men who join the Gay Boys Club for the travel and dining and all the rent boys you can get. Not to mention foreign boys too!
    God deliver us from such men.

    Of course this is silly, as the papal galero is red, as the four previous popes show:

    Although John XXIII DID actually have a white one:

Real Life Catholics on BBC TV defend Church Teaching on Contraception.

Image
This morning on BBC TV Sunday Morning Live there was a good debate inspired by Melinda Gates (who identifies as Catholic) comments about the pope potentially changing doctrine on contraception. The Catholic contributors were Fr Paddy McCafferty, Clare Short and Obianuju Ekeocha. I think they did really well. Uju's direction is very interesting and easily wrong foots those who want to impose western ideas of morality on Africans in an imperialistic way. Interesting that the presenter agrees with her on this. Fr Paddy gave a great account of his experience as a priest. He was compassionate, realistic and honest, while upholding the value and importance of the doctrine. Clare said she had experience of both ways and the Catholic way is better by far. I thought that was awesome! I especially liked her focus on equality and bringing the responsibility of both husband & wife into the discussion. Watch out for the bit where the other lady says "Pope Francis has ind...

Priest Writes to Pope Francis Addressing his Pluralism

Image
  An Open Letter to His Holiness, Pope Francis       The inside of the dome of St Peter’s Basilica in Rome with the words of Our Lord to St Peter,   Tu es petrus, et super hanc petram aedificabo ecclesiam meam; et portae inferi non prevalebunt adversus eam; et tibi dabo claves regni coelorum.   Thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven.   Mt 16:18-19 Most Holy Father,   Recently, you addressed the young people of Singapore. You encouraged them to engage critically with the world around them. You urged them to take risks. You warned them of the danger of becoming enslaved to social media and discouraged them from becoming closed in on themselves as a result of living their lives too much through social media. And you highlighted the need to be brave in standing up to bullies. The young p...

Episcopal Manoeuvres in the Dark

Image
Catholic Bishops of England and Wales announced yesterday that Pope Francis had appointed Msgr James Curry, Parish Priest at Our Lady of Victories, Kensington, a salubrious parish in West London, as Auxiliary Bishop of Westminster Archdiocese and Titular Bishop of Ramsbiria (Ramsbiriensis). This news will come to no surprise to anyone paying attention to Church politics in the United Kingdom. Msgr Jim, as he is known, has been long considered a favoured member of the “Magic Circle”, a self-selecting small pool of like-minded “insiders” who come through lines of patronage that can be traced back to one man. Archbishop Derek Worlock , the progressive former Archbishop of Liverpool and mentor to the current Cardinal Archbishop of Westminster, Vincent Nichols . What is perhaps more of a shock is that it has taken so long to arrange his promotion, occurring as it does, at the end of Cardinal Nichol’s tenure as Cardinal Archbishop of Westminster – Nichols was 75 in 2020. It almost seems l...
