Despite the Hogans being staunchly Roman Catholic, I refuse to attend Mass. Have refused for about a decade now. Oh, I still believe in God. I still think he looks after me. But really. The Church, those guys who rule all from their ivory towers in the Vatican? Those buggers (and some factions of Islam) are still stuck in the dark ages. HELL yeah.
This doesn't help to restore my faith.
Found via BBC News, the article showcases a priest who had to resign in 2002 from his post as Archbishop of Boston over allegations that he covered pedo crimes committed by his priests. This same guy is one of those chosen to say Mass (1 of 9 memorial Masses) for the recently departed Pope John Paul II.
What gross arrogance. The guy resigns in shame and you give him the honour of saying Mass for the Pope? Aren't there shame-free buggers around to pick from?
Think EQ classes would help? Ya think?
Natural introvert, learned extrovert.

Cardinal Bernard Law should've been forced to turn in his collar, or scepter or whatever he uses.
Very bad man.
