Although we don't yet know all that the ABC said, I presume he referred to the powers in the RCC in Ireland. What he said is, at least, quite close to the truth. Of course, his saying the words probably makes it more difficult for you in your ecumenical relations with the Roman Catholics in your area.<br /><br />My easiest relationships with my Roman Catholic family and friends, and I have many, is when I don't hold them personally responsible for the actions of those in power and when my family and friends don't try to defend the indefensible.June Butlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01723016934182800437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-989890166047940960.post-54034032822321559442010-04-03T19:18:44.003+01:002010-04-03T19:18:44.003+01:00...we are, each one of us, always more than our wo...<i>...we are, each one of us, always more than our worst day – our worst statement – our biggest faux pas....</i><br /><br />Ah, lovely, Stephen.

It occurs to me lately that ...Nice sermon, Stephen. It occurs to me lately that being a Christian today - of any denomination - is quite radical. Have you seen Penn Gillette, an American illusionist and self-proclaimed atheist, talk about how he has no respect for Christians who do not proselytize: if we know that there is a Heaven and a Hell, and we know how to get to one and avoid the other, then why on earth aren't we telling everybody about it? He likens it to seeing a large truck bear down on somebody, who is unaware of the impending doom, and at some stage you just have to step in.
