It’s sort of like a bad, ironic joke

…that Fr. Richard McBrien is the hired gun consulant on the DVC movie. Perhaps it’s a natural step for him, who can say? Nevertheless, news of his work was published in the Notre Dame magazine last spring. Letters ensue: (scroll down) I was saddened but not surprised to read that Father Richard McBrien will consult…

Oh, and on the Catholic Passion..

There’s an interview with David Scott up over at Godspy. Many good points, including this one: Reading your book, the beauty and richness of the faith comes across clearly. But in the daily experience of many Catholics, the experience of the Church, especially in her liturgical life, is empty and formal. What do you say…

In the Orlando diocese, a priest is dismissed for stealing 10,000 from the collection… It was discovered the Rev. Marek Maczynski had taken the money from church donations, and church officials reported the missing money to the Brevard County Sheriff’s Office in early August, Brinati said.

I wish *I* had bishops posting in *my* comments boxes! (Hmm…maybe I do. Who knows who lurks under the pseudonyms?) Good sport, that Bishop!

I wasn’t feeling so great yesterday. Every few days, Michael the Baby’s poor sleep habits catch up with me and I operate in a zombie-like haze for a day. Yesterday was one of them. But even though last night wasn’t too much better, somehow I got enough zzzz’s in a row to make me feel…

…she wasn’t wearing a sari today. But she was in some BoHo batik skirt with cool sandals and a kind of shawl thing up top. So I’m guessing she’s just likes long flowy-type things… And Joseph? He still "can’t remember" what he did at school. Maybe they really do just line up and go to…
