This strange response from Father Johansen has to be somewhat of a vindication for Michael Rose. From reading his post, this priest is almost as strange as Popcak. It is also a dishonest response.

Every Catholic I have talked to thinks Popcak words are creepy - - not just traditionalists. My mother would likely vomit if I mentioned this to her and she has not been to a Latin Mass in years. As Al pointes out, Rod Dreher's response was "ICK!" Sinkspur similarly sees these comments as un-Catholic and not worth of a defense.

Mark Shea saught to deflect attention from Popcak's strangeness by trying to pin this thing on the traditionalists. Father "Rob" followed suit.

But make no mistake, if I quoted Popcak's comments to all twenty Catholic couples on my block, each and every one of them would laugh in my face. And only half of them even attend Mass on Sunday, not quite radtrads.

If our dear Sinky sees something as beyond the pale ... ITS BEYOND THE PALE!!!

BTW, here's Fr. Rob's homepage. Perhaps Sinky can comment on him devoting a section of it to cigars. Fr. Rob certainly doesn't look like he is hurting for food.
