At that time I found the contrast between what EWTN and Coming Home Network was saying and what I experienced in the parishes to be disconcerting. So many people blamed this contrast on "AmChurch" and looked to the Vatican as a kind of safe zone. <br /><br />But really it comes from the top! Even Benedict is not all that conservative according to some reports. What a eureka moment! That is why all those DRE's and priests just assumed I was a religious nut. The new church claptrap at their RCIA classes was precisely what they were expected to teach. <br /><br />Vickie<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15895111.post-70082035659711128152013-10-02T20:46:01.664+02:002013-10-02T20:46:01.664+02:00Meh.

His words don't annoy me as much as the endless commentary and explaining-away by some of the conservatives.<br /><br />Thanks for bringing a bit of sanity and common sense to this debacle. <br /><br />Cheers *raises glass* Marknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15895111.post-5804868376788653512013-10-02T17:33:35.493+02:002013-10-02T17:33:35.493+02:00Great post.
