Posted on 5 December 2012 by Fr. John Zuhlsdorf

If Christmas or Easter are on the horizon, we can be sure that Hell’s Bible (and the Fishwrap) will find someone in the Church to bash.  Right now, that would be Bishop Robert Finn of the Diocese of Kansas City-St. Joseph. … Continue reading →

It seems that the National catholic Fishwrap took exception to my little dig.  Heh heh.
Michael Sean Winters got all excited and thought he scored a point.   He is baiting me, of course, but I’ll take the bait this time.

Posted on 21 November 2012 by Fr. John Zuhlsdorf
