Rich Leonardi posts a contrast between Rochester’s Bishop Matthew Clark crucial diocesan-wide effort and Cardinal Pell’s comments on the same subject.
I am convinced a star ship could be powered by these two men if we could harness orthodox matter and anti-orthodox matter interactions.

I found the same article a couple of days back and I to enjoyed reading it. Very succinct.
I am begging Our Lord to please grant us HOLY bishops. We have had enough of apostates in miters who decimate their dioceses.
Yeah…I live in the DOR and we get petitions, female homilists, and all manner of shameful behavior flung in our faces each week. We’ve lost monasteries, we import priests from Nigeria who get chastised about their conservative practices and counseled about their accents…and leave as fast as they can once their period of obedience ends, and each week we are asked to pray for vocations. None from our area in over 10 years. Imagine that.
I thought LA was bad. We have 5 new priests. (which is nothing for the largest archdiocese in the US). I’ll definately pray for you
Would a starship powered by grave matter and grave anti-matter be able to visit the “Mirror Universe” where Cardinal Ratzinger has a beard and Scotty Hahn takes Captain Wojtyla’s documents and beams them down to a place where laypeople can understand them?
While the sometimes inscrutable “mysticism” of Pope John Paul II’s writings can be a challenge, if “laypeople” can’t understand the writing style of Pope Benedict, they need a course in remedial English.
Thanks for the plug, Jeff.
Pope John Paul II’s writings are a bit challenging, but they can be understood. Pope Benedict’s writings are very clear and to the point, a nice change of pace for the armchair theologian/luturgical critic that I am, lol.
