Vocation v. career— Interesting, insightful and informative. I hadn’t considered it in that context. I now understand the perspective. (”Ya wanna join? Here are the rules”)
Dogma v discipline; Ditto. Unfortunately, it appears that others have the two confused as they see a change in the “discipline” as an heretical end to their religion (and civilization as we know it).
As for me (thinking of Hawkey’s response to Fr. Mulcahy about becoming a priest): “I like my weekends free.”
Thanks.
No problem. I have a bit more insight than many, my son is going to seminary next year :)
