“Given that Rorate Coeli and Shea are mad at Fr. Z, I think it proves Fr. Z knows what he is doing and he is right.”

"Let me be clear. Fr. Z is a shock jock, mostly. His readership is vast and touchy. They like to be provoked and react with speed and fury."

“For me the saddest thing about Father Z’s blog is how cruel it is.... It’s astonishing to me that a priest could traffic in such cruelty and hatred.”

Absolutely. Prayers here.
Sad news, Father. You’re both in my prayers.
Terrible news. Be assured of the prayers.
Not to be confused with the evil Piero Marini…requiescat in pace…
Father Z. wrote: “exceptionally good humor and clear thought”
What a wonderful personality Msgr. Marini must have had. I have always been intrigued with the Canons at St. Peter’s, especially at Vespers on Sunday afternoons and at the Sunday Solemn Masses at the Altar of the Chair. The ones I have met have always been extremely kind. I’m not 100% sure which one was Msgr. Marini, but I will definitely pray for the repose of his soul.
Fr. Z.:
My wife and I will have a Mass read for his soul.

Praying.
Condolences.
As to Archbishop Piero Marini being “evil,” all I can say is that he stood at the Pope’s elbow for decades and didn’t seem to displease his master nor did he receive the paternal correction that most of us would have thought desirable.
A sad loss. I will offer a rosary for the repose of his soul.
Aww, Father, I am so sorry to hear about this loss.
Of course I will pray for Msgr Marini.
Father Z,
So sorry to hear about the loss of your friend. I will remember him in my prayers.
Eternal memory!
Praying for Msgr. Marini.
Requiescat in pace.
So sorry to hear of the loss of your friend, Father Z…
Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord…
