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.
By the standards that these things must be measured, admittedly not very high, Benedict has been and is an exemplary pope. I'm sure he's leading the church in the direction of and in the manner that he thinks is best. He is undeniably a man of great sensitivity, scholarship and thoughtful intelligence. If more of his fellow priests shared these traits with him, the church would be more highly regarded than it is.
ReplyDeleteI hope he continues in good health and capable of full function and activity for a long time.
Here you go, Tim.

You'll like this. A story of little Dutch boys who accused priests of sexually molesting them in the 1950s. The Police upon taking the reports, turned them back over to the Church, which institutionalized them in a church run mental hospital, where they were promptly castrated to help alleviate their dangerous homosexual feelings.
It seems to me that this is the kind of treatment that you and Father Steve would like to see even today of those that accuse priests of inappropriate behavior. What are you two hiding?
How disgusting
