I think I had perhaps the
ugliest challenging in Ottawa as anywhere, the ugliest confrontation
I think I've had anywhere," Kaufman
That's one of the points
made in the papal quotations I posted previously: Things can and
should be said much better than the Monsignor and others of his ilk
who visit here!
Come on and give it a try. I'll bet you
COULD say it much better!
peace,

Replying to:
Monsignor Vincent Foy, a former head of Toronto's
archdiocesan marriage tribunal, wrote of Kaufman's book in a review
reprinted in that city's Catholic Register: "With ... certainty it
can be said that the humblest Catholic of our times, accepting the
teaching of the church, is more enlightened on the truth of God and
the way to him than are all the sad dissenters."
Couldn't have
said it any better myself!

Replying to:
Brothers and Sisters, are you familiar with the Liturgical Press
at http://www.catalog.litpress.org/ leading publishers of Catholic
lectionaries, mass guides, bulletins and such, a ministry of the
Benedictine monks of St. John’s Abbey
http://www.saintjohnsabbey.org/ or http://www.sja.osb.org/ ?
I encourage you to visit the Abbey, in cyberspace or
Collegeville, especially the website of Rev. Philip S. Kaufman OSB,
Monk, Author and Catholic Priest at
http://www.saintjohnsabbey.org/kaufman/index.html or
http://www.sja.osb.org/kaufman/
A Benedictine monk for more
that fifty years, he lives at Saint John's Abbey in Collegeville,
Minnesota, and spends much of his time giving comfort to Catholics
through workshops on topics from his books. Father Philip, now 88
years old and still in good health, continues to write on
controversial subjects in the Catholic Church.
I especially
encourage you to read “Probabilism: The Right to Know of Moral
Options”, which is the third chapter of __Why You Can Disagree and
Remain a Faithful Catholic__ and available online at
http://www.saintjohnsabbey.org/kaufman/chapter3.html
Some
may be interested in Chapter 7, "Divorce and Remarriage", also
available online at
http://www.saintjohnsabbey.org/kaufman/index3.html
For you
southerners, take heart, though now a long-established northernr,
Fr. Philip was born in Mississippi and got his master's degree in
government from Louisiana State University. He has something to say
to us all, I believe.
pax et bonum,
Mo4
