Pro Ecclesia Et Pontifice Methodist Hall Talk Torpedoed by....

...Westminster Cathedral?

No, it can't be!

Read the story here. It is starting to look like 'they' are successfully silencing honest Catholics.

'Nothing will move the chief executive of Westminster Central Hall (the Revd Kim Swindle) from this stance'

Mmmm....Didn't 'they' say something similar about the sinking of the Titanic, I seem to recall?

'Even God couldn't sink this ship'

I think Ken will find his stance is not ultimately, completely unmoveable.

How terrible though, all the money that has been wasted.

I don't pretend, for an instance to know why this would happen. Is it really simply to do with it being a Catholic conference, do you think?

For Goodness Sake!
Read all this.
I'm definitely further delaying my crossing of the Tiber.
Far, far too much bickering and no proper explanations for deferment of ordination or cancellation of conferences etc.
I couldn't deal with that lack of communication.
Not yet.
Maybe next year. It's not my choice is it, where and when the Holy Spirit leads me home.

I wondered how long it would take them to get around to doing this. Daphne's done a brilliant job defending orthodoxy over the past 40 odd years and was a true blogger before the blogs (probably the original blogger). She doesn't deserve this - but then again you can recognise the quality of what you do by the status of your enemies.

The Anglican Communion is a peaceful village of love, harmony and equanimity of views?

Granted there is a certain opaqueness, Roger. Some of it may be due to Catholics adopting the habit of speaking in riddles and whispers over a few hundred years of persecution and opprobrium.
But the Catholic blogs are doing sterling work in opening up this behind-the-handery to scrutiny.
In both cases referred to the main players acted a tad unwisely. It's not a defeat but a temporary setback. They'll survive it and the Holy Spirit will guide them through.
When the Holy Spirit gets to work on you the longing to embrace Mother Church will be so strong there'll be no gainsaying it. The human faults and follies within will pale by comparison.
As a cradle Catholic I regard the Ordinariate as one of the Pope's masterstrokes to reinvigorate the Church in England and Wales. God love you all.

So Now That We're All Saying What We're Thinking...

Over the years on this blog I have offered some commentary on Pope Francis and his bizarre, scandalous and increasingly diabolical pontificate. Of late, I have tried to keep it light, trying to offer some comic relief on the papacy arranged meticulously in a conference room in Hell. Later still, I stopped blogging, mostly due to time constraints, domestic and work commitments. Before I stopped blogging, I was confident enough in my own limited knowledge of the Church to offer some insights into what I thought had gone wrong in the time since 13 March 2013.

Reasons for the catastrophe I offered over the time were varied, from the election of a 'mad Pope' to the election of an apostate Bishop to the Papacy, to someone who was elected Pope but who resisted the Truth and simply taught his own beliefs instead. Who hasn't thought, 'Oh, he's a Jesuit, what could anyone expect?' Did I say these things explicitly? Some yes, others I expect not, because with this situat…
