    Being a Catholic is of huge importance to me and a huge privilege. To me, it is not a religion, it really is a relationship, with Christ.


    i would say the same apply to me
    only i do not attend mass anymore
    the difference is i still love god,
    yet i do not like what his shephards are doing,
    i do not need them in my life

    I did think the selection of "celebrities" was perhaps a little whimsical. At least two of them are very publicly repudiating the Church's teaching. No doubt that was the point that someone was trying to make.

    But at least the feature was a small interruption to the recent media riot.

    By the way, when will the bien-pensant commentators (a phrase that I think could be accurately translated as politically correct) draw attention to the fact that members of the Church of Ireland are embracing "Iron Age myths"? Or, more daringly, when will they say it to the African Irish with their vibrant evangelical churches? Would someone please let me know when that happens.

    That's what Ian O'Doherty in the Indo calls the New Testament, though I would venture to guess that the phrase is too clever for him to have made up himself.

    Luckily, one can't hurt God.
