Recently, in the combox, I read these words (in reference to an elderly lady in a walker), "soon she will be trading in that walker for a box in the ground." I have a good sense of humor but do not find anything humorous about comments such as these. It is disrespectful to the dignity of the human person. Why wasn't it deleted? I seem to remember a similar crowd mocking a man 2000 years ago and remember the words He spoke not too long before his death on the Cross, "Whatsoever you do to the least of my brothers, that you do unto me."<br /><br />And, yes, Father is in my prayers, as are those who leave such demeaning words in the combox.Mary N.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06618318192221168152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3450626869303471458.post-88217645651737503732011-06-14T05:50:36.369-04:002011-06-14T05:50:36.369-04:00Sorry, I was logged in differently and wrote above...Sorry, I was logged in differently and wrote above as "David in Toronto."Vox Cantorishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16987049370515084083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3450626869303471458.post-8595584552674863252011-06-14T05:49:31.378-04:002011-06-14T05:49:31.378-04:00Hmmmm..."mockery?"

So, let's agree that he is mocking and has become a little cranky.<br /><br />Whether or not one wished to "delist" him is of no consequence. Maybe instead, one should pray for him.<br /><br />As I wrote above, his style does not bother me, I can see how it would bother some. My style is sometimes "in your face" too; I've been criticized and applauded for it, both, by both priests and laity.<br /><br />I think there is a place for it. We're in a war on our faith and culture; perhaps this is our white martyrdom. We need to fight back.<br /><br />Is this style the right way? For him, yes.<br /><br />Some people believe that graphic pictures of aborted babies are not effective, some people believe they are effective. They are and they are not, it depends on the receiver of the message.<br /><br />There is room for both.Vox Cantorishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16987049370515084083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3450626869303471458.post-40222842126093110822011-06-13T21:53:44.053-04:002011-06-13T21:53:44.053-04:00I rarely visit his blog for the very reasons you h...I rarely visit his blog for the very reasons you have expressed above. A few things I might have let slide by because no one is perfect but mockery seems to have become the norm rather than the exception at his site and some of the comments that are left there are poisonous so I completely understand why you would delete him from your links. A number of others have done the same recently.Mary N.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06618318192221168152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3450626869303471458.post-43757771625830780452011-06-13T21:42:09.735-04:002011-06-13T21:42:09.735-04:00I don't disagree that he has become a little m...I don't disagree that he has become a little more snarky lately (coming from one who is naturally snarky, it is not always easy for me to see it); however, I think you need to cut him some slack. His work is very important and I for one am supportive of him and Voris. Some are more outspoken than others. There are many way to battle for the faith. He continues to be a daily read for me and he is doing important work. This has been a long battle and I think he knows more about what is going on then he lets on. More than you and me. <br /><br />On another note, we can say that Pope's are wrong. Not every action they institute is infallible. Indults can be wrong as the one for the laity doing the dishes; it was revoked.<br /><br />The indult on communion and altar girls will, I belive, one day soon go the same way. In the fullness of time these errors will be reversed. <br /><br />Yes, Pope's make mistakes in judgement.David in Torontohttp://www.voxcantor.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3450626869303471458.post-61405157242725421592011-06-12T21:33:54.908-04:002011-06-12T21:33:54.908-04:00I have found Fr.Zs translations to be very useful,...I have found Fr.Zs translations to be very useful, and his bits on Liturgy etc.<br /><br />However, I don't think I'd like to sit down to a beer with him.<br /><br />I'm going to say, Bravely Done, my friend, Bravely done!ignorant redneckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15718783732896413346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3450626869303471458.post-19734164947037764132011-06-12T18:56:27.303-04:002011-06-12T18:56:27.303-04:00You'll only get a cheer from this corner.You'll only get a cheer from this corner.Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04444704944288002925noreply@blogger.com
