Well, it's been a hell of a ride, laying rubber all over the road for the past decade. But it's time to call it a day and park the Rogue in the garage. Effective today, I am shutting down my blog to focus my attention on other endeavours. My thanks to the more than 2.7 million people who regularly joined me on these sojourns through news stories over the years that dealt with the places with issues of religion and faith intersecting with public affairs. May God bless you with a continuing desire to learn about and help disseminate the issues of faith throughout the public square. Happy trails in your continuing travels! Fr. Tim Moyle, p.p. Diocese of Pembroke
Reflections from the pastoral ministry of an Evangelical Catholic Priest.
Bottom line: if they accept any public monies at all, they are already not independent, so nothing is being threatened.
ReplyDeleteIf they want to keep their "pure" status, and become completely independent, they have to do one very simple thing -- forgo all public money. Keep their funding strictly private. And if they think they can't compete on that level, what does that tell them? Why should they have special status when no one else has it?
