An editorial cartoon… Michael Ramirez!

An editorial cartoon… Michael Ramirez!

“This blog is rather like a fusion of the Baroque ‘salon’ with its well-tuned harpsichord around which polite society gathered for entertainment and edification and, on the other hand, a Wild West “saloon” with its out-of-tune piano and swinging doors, where everyone has a gun and something to say. Nevertheless, we try to point our discussions back to what it is to be Catholic in this increasingly difficult age, to love God, and how to get to heaven.” - Fr. Z


Excellent!

“Father, forgive them…”
The second funny, is just so relevant to today’s media. Unbelievably relevant!
Just when we think it can’t get any worse, it does. Some levity it always a good thing to help lighten the weariness.
As a Norwegian Catholic during these days of trial and tribulation, I can well identify with the first chicken. Coffee does help a little, but still….
The second cartoon is exactly right. I have spent a ridiculous amount of time posting on secular new sites supporting the Church – my wife says I’m a glutton for punishment lol. In almost every case any post that attempts to point out facts of the issue, supports the Church, or defends the Pope draws instant accusations that I am defending “criminals, pedophiles, wackos, freaks, etc”. Dawkins and Hitchens announcement that they are seeking to arrest the Pope has really brought out all the extremists.
You just know the media will dig up something linking Pope Pius XII to all this mess…….
Seeing that second cartoon, I can breathe a sigh of relief and say, ‘Thank goodness there were no ‘media sharks’ on the first Good Friday!’
‘Father, forgive US….’

Ummm, Irishgirl, there were. They were even at the foot of the cross (hint: they weren’t the BVM, St John or the Holy Women)
