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.
Quite a discussion, and , from the point of view of the Priest-_Bishop relationship. Absent is any mention of the laity- who only represent 99% of the Catholic Church !
ReplyDeleteThen there is the case of a former Bishop of Pembroke Diocese who told the Priests of that Diocese to not be too concerned about him, since he was only passing through. And, he was right. In a very short time he was made Archbishop of Edmonton. Careerism- in the Catholic Church you say ?
dog-gone: You write

I guess I must have been absent from that meeting as I never heard anything even close to this coming from +Smith. In fact, what you proffer runs in the face of just about everything I ever heard from him during the time that he was our bishop. Are you certain of your facts or are you reporting something on the basis of hearsay? Just curious.

Yes, Father- I am certain. I got that info from Priests in the Pembroke Diocese.
