It's just that I am soooo disgusted at the deceit, pettiness, manipulation, and UN-CHRIST like behavior of those presently "in power" in the Diocese of Oakland,CA.... i.e. RATzinger's "rats".<br />The Catholic Voice conveniently published only a portion of the article that was offered on their official website, regarding the situation at SJW in Berkeley.<br />Many of us still remember the Baltimore Catechism's definition of LIES, one of which is "by OMISSION". <br />Heaven forbid...!!! that the Catholic Voice use space to print "the other side". They needed the "space" to cha-ching $$$$ include the article at top of page 5: "Heavy-hitters among speakers at July Napa Institute conference"...."Solemn Pontifical Mass in the Extraordinary Form of the Roman Rite"....."<br />at $1500.00 a pop, excluding accommodations.

This is a clock book case of steeple jacking.<br /><br />Zach,both articles are well worth reading.

Prayerfully, more laity will begin to speak up and challenge the heirarchial clericalism (I feel this will happen after the forced implication of the new missal, or the newly dubbed "Roman Missal Crisis 2011". yes, play on words) Thanks for a more uplifting sort of post, hahaha.
