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.
Fifty years is an eye blink in the history of the Catholic Church. What Vatican II was actually about has been a bone of contention since the very beginning. Liberal factions may have embroidered some new meanings into it's annuls. The reactionary hierarchy is certainly doing everything in it's power to rewrite it's history and significance to uphold their autocratic power and clerical majesty.
ReplyDeleteIt's taken on a life of it's own in the folkways of the church and those folkways will lead where they will and the church will have to travel them, irregardless of what the different factions would like. It's a Magical Mystery Tour.
