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

Voice in the wilderness?
ReplyDeleteMelissa used to say “ Oh my God” a lot. Because she would hear me say “Oh My God.” That came from my dad and his. It was indeed prayerfully for me( To Profound for the fanatics). She was scolded by Cathedral school teachers ( and principle , I fought believe me) for using the word ‘God’ and they suggested she substitute “darn” for “God”
I, so so angered by it all suggested she use "fuck" instead of "God" like every other kid on my street does all the time.
But she didnt do that and now she is university and I wish she would still say "Oh My God" even if its for the selfish reason to give me some indication if she has some realtionship to God. Without me asking.
