Last night our parish hosted the local ‘ecumenical service’ so my wife and I attended. The local Baptist church was represented by a Reverend Doctor and a Pastor, both of whom looked and sounded like they belonged on the lady wrestling circuit. Or the men’s. From the 1950s.

My wife is more conciliatory than I am. For me, never again. I have no wish to listen to female ‘ministers’ speaking from the pulpit in a Catholic church. Would that the hippie generation pass from our midst and plague us no more.

I fully appreciate the experience. A neighbor family consists of a female ordained Episcopal minister whose husband teaches at a local catholic college. When their daughter graduated in June from Berkleigh College, mom helped her find a summer internship with the ACLU!!!
