In the Introit of the Mass the Church sings: [...]

A couple of days ago, I wrote a somewhat rambling piece about Voice of the "Faithful" (VOT"F") Chicagoland's open letter to the Holy Father*. I focused on one passage in particular, namely the one in which VOT"F"C attempts to rebut the "metaphor argument" (e.g. the "sexual symbolism" argument) against ordaining women to the Catholic priesthood**. However, I had time only to consider the first half of that passage, which concerns their mistaken view as to the role of a priest. Today, I'd li [...]

Why Was My Voice So Small?

Lisa's voice on the other end of the line stunned me. It was a strange combination of normalcy and urgency. I had for hours been pacing in my mind, watching others pace around the holding cell, while others re-arranged themselves on the cold hard metal benches. Still others, I could tell, were beginning to withdraw from some substance of influence, changing before my eyes from who they were when they first came into this small grey space of life. E [...]

Orphans are children whose parents are deceased or otherwise unable to care for them. Parents, and sometimes grandparents, are legally responsible for supporting children, but in the absence of these or other relatives willing to care for the children, they become a ward of the state. According to the statistic of UNICIF India statistic, in Indian alone there are about 25,700,000 orphaned due to many cause and reasons.   It is estimated that:   &nb [...]

Prefatory rant: The ironically named group Voice of the "Faithful's" (VOT"F") Chicagoland (C) chapter has recently submitted a dissident heretic's manifesto letter to the Holy Father (and the papal nuncio, and the president of the USCCB). The letter is quite nicely cut to ribbons summarized by Mr LarryD on the Acts of the Apostasy blog. I won't go to such great lengths to duplicate his fine work in summarizing, analyzing, and summarily refuting the open letter. Instead, I want to focus on j [...]
