I just don’t get it. Do they hate what they claim to want to be?
Over at Coo-ees In The Cloister:
Look at this photo. What does it say to you? What questions come to mind as you look at the way these people are dressed, at the signs they are holding?

McBrien thinks the Pope is … wait for it… wrong about women’s ordination!
