Spare me more priests (Main Forum)

by Tom McMahon, 'San Jose, Ca. USA', Thursday, July 09, 2009, 01:22 (1413 days ago) @ PeterR

Herbie and all .... well said. Be patient . For me it is like a large screen showing of the process of elimination, the glacier like disappearance of a clergy we took for granted 60 years ago.The young pay no attention and have no need while the elders watch in silent horror and wonder about their salvation which came automatically as they punched in their Sunday time with god and priest. Education is a wondrous experience , yet slow and painful. I watched the Michael Jackson funeral yesterday and learned a lot yet there was still mystery ; what a medium TV is , reaching so many while the RC still thinks it can spread the news through its priest on Sat. night or Sunday.
