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.
Interesting. This guy is an Oppie, Fox news correspondent and has lived in Rome for decades. This tells us that they are not looking to craft the message for the general public or even most catholic laity but aimed straight at the super orthodox, traditional followers of the Church. These people should be strongly in the hierarchy's corner anyway. The fact that they have hired him to craft their message tells you that they are not. This group constitutes no more than 20% of laity. When you remove those under the age of 60, it is much smaller, maybe 10-12% at most. the fact that they feel they must extend themselves to keep these guys in the fold tells you that the church is in much worse shape than anybody realizes.
ReplyDeleteI thought the Holy Spirit advised the Pope.
ReplyDeleteAre we now to believe that a Fox News correspondent is on the same level as the HS?
Oh dear...
