I hear what you are saying, and agree whole-heartedly. At the same time, much of the message can be corrupted by the delivery. In this case, a very powerful message about the power of deception and the devil was diminished by tail end about Jews and Masons.

Also, when a priest begins to speak out against his bishop, there is likely a detailed story. It is possible for a well-meaning priest to run afoul of a not-as-well-meaning bishop. It is also possible for a well-meaning priest to do a lousy job. I don’t know the details in this case.

Consider this possibility: 10 people from Spain are visiting the US and want to see a baseball game. They know very little, but are interested to learn. Would they want somebody to give a detailed history of the balk, followed by any number of statistics? Or, would somebody who explains the basics of game, allowing a curiosity to develop into a love? While both are important, they are more appropriate to different audiences.

In this case, I was overwhelmed by the ERA of 1987 Toledo Mud Hens’ relief pitcher.

Did you check out the references in the article regarding the priest being sent away from his parish?
