What Sister Wendy said

Dear Priest-Readers,

Go to JoeMyGodand read what this good woman had to say on the Huffington blog.

Finally, someone with the courage to trust God. To trust the Holy Spirit. To go to the root of the Good News rather than try to manipulate it into all sorts of painful and inhumane contrivances under the cloak of upholding tradition. In your hearts, you know she's right. Doesn't it make you want to be as courageous as she is, and to proclaim what you know to be true?

Color Me Blue

To My Fellow Priests:

Guys. Can someone please tell me who in the Archdiocese of NY is responsible for this ridiculous and hilarious piece of...

And how do I get a copy of the whole thing? An instant classic.

UPDATE: Here it is I think you'll agree that the page showing the priest and altar boy in the sacristy is really wrong on so many levels. So are the pages that attempt to show male pedophiles bearing candy and male internet predators. Pity the nice men of this world who just happen to look like these guys and will now send kids screaming to other adults. This is really amateur stuff.

Also, the coloring book attempts to address the problem of a child who has been abused by an adult he or she trusted. Now who do they tell? It's handled in a clumsy and confusing way. Jesus Christ.
