Those are some excellent examples of deacons ---
**Because I assoicate their Vatican II restoration and rise (along w/their mentor Priests) with the cheery dilution of the Faith.**
How can you be the judge, jury, etc. You are condemning deacons as though you held the keys to the kingdom.
And I don't think that you can put all present-day deacons into your faulty description either.
I don't remember issuing a judgement, just expressing an observation. I'm well aware that there are good deacons out there.
