“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.”

I’ve given Mulier a pound with this contribution
‘If you kum by yah one more time, I won’t lay my hands gently upon you and you won’t be walk, walk, walking in the light for some time’!
I hear and obey. A post will go up later today. :)
Now, if only there was somebody to give me a bump…
Heheheheh… thanks, Father Z! I figured that you must have risen to the challenge from the sudden spike this morning…
Now, how many hours behind are you…?
Thanks for pointing us to Mac’s site and most entertaining comments! Sadly I am familiar with many of these hymns. It got to the point when I was in danger of exploding if I heard one more ‘Clapping Gloria.’
I now attend a different parish where ‘Faith of our Fathers’ and ‘The Lourdes Hymn’ are on the ‘menu’ not to mention the magnificent ‘Missa de Angelis’ – wonderful!
Actually there is one modern hymn that did once move me to tears – in the right way. That is ‘Our God reigns’ which we all sung with such emotion in Wembley Stadium at the Pentecost Mass celebrated by Pope John Paul II. Strangely although I hoped we would sing it on perhaps the anniversary of his visit, I never did have the opportunity of singing it again.
Pelerin – that parish sounds great. Can you say where it is (I assume in it’s the UK)?
Mac: how many hours behind are you…?
hmmm… actually… I think we are right on time!
But there are six hours difference now, I believe.
Pelerin: That is the parish of the mighty Fr. Finigan in Blackfen, Kent
Fr. When you say jump The Richter Scale spikes. [If only wishing could make it so!]
done
Sorry Fr Z – you are incorrect! [Oppps… I thought someone was asking where Mac’s parish is. You see… I usually assume people want to stick with the topic of the entry, rather than pull the discussion elsewhere. o{];¬) ]
