Great,Richard! Perhaps I will forward it on to my own bishop! (Yeah...right...)
ReplyDeleteDo you know, until I got to #10 where you suggest dialogue with the heretics I thought you were serious.
ReplyDeleteThen I read them again and had a good chuckle. Happy new year.
ReplyDeleteThank you Michael and Jay. And thank you Tony, I appreciate your unswerving support as always.
A Holy 2013 to you all.
11. As Bishop of Erehwon I pledge in this Year of Faith to give public and unequivocal support for the Pope.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year to you and your family, Richard, and to all.
That the use of Extraordinary ministers should be just that
ReplyDelete"Extraordinary".
I'm happy to announce that my Ordinary has in fact done No. 4. Deo gratias.
ReplyDeleteA happy and blessed 2013 to you, Richard, to Mrs Linen and to all your readers.
In sum, Bishops should follow Jesus and the Bishop of Rome, not Belgium and Hollywood.
ReplyDeleteA happy and holy 2013, everyone!

I'm sure His Lordship, +Philip (Egan) would tick all boxes.
ReplyDeleteInstant excommunication (with optional death sentence) for anyone practising self-intinction. On reflection, make that "mandatory death sentence".
ReplyDelete(Rats - another one for my next confession.....)
Patti - and a very holy and peaceful New Year to you and your family. God bless.
ReplyDeleteMack, thanks as always.
Jonathan - and EMHCs!
