Which of course has everything to do with how much each is respectively congruent with current secular obsessions. At least the Cecil the Lion Brigade is happy. <br /><br />We have a long ways to go before a balanced ecclesiology reemerges in the Church - along with so much else.

This is precisely why a large piece of traditionalism and I don't see eye-to-eye and why the non-traditionalist Catholics are surprised when they learn my papal disagreements with "trads" are not because I believe them to be be anti-pope. It is because they are pope-obsessed, wishing to be yes-men and monkeys of a particular era rather than this one. <br /><br />Good thing we have the internetz where merry little bands of nonconformist misfits can gather ;)Ecclesial Vigilantehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17070187926547373245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3348523519788188753.post-38329380962487389592015-12-14T14:44:58.785-06:002015-12-14T14:44:58.785-06:00I didn't know Bonzo was still around.

Unfortunately, I don't see him resigning before his natural end. I believe he is in love with all the adulation he gets from the masses.<br /><br />AnthonyUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05192594580249914996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3348523519788188753.post-65606191178361997782015-12-14T13:22:38.130-06:002015-12-14T13:22:38.130-06:00God Bless you for this post.
