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.
The church (which always means a unilateral decision by the bishop) within the diocese is free to spend it's money, given to it in good faith and trust by all of it's children, as it chooses. Why make an issue of something like this? Just do it, don't send out a press release to the Lifers. Some people will support the action, some will oppose, some will not care, some will look upon it in bewilderment. Unless you purposefully want to promote splits in the church and disaffection among the faithful, I don't see the point.

The point is at the top of your head! Get a life! If you do not like it , mind YOUR business !
Delete+Mulhall an ++Collins are to be congratulated for taking real leadership in this regard..and it is their right as diocesan bishops.The CCCB has no theological basis to usurp each bishop's authority in his own diocese.Many play ball with the idea of D&P because they have the feeling it will advance their cause for bigger roles in the church.A bishop rules unilaterally under the authority of Peter.
