My e-mail to the bishop (Bishop@dioceseofnashville.com):

Bishop Choby,

I just read your diocesan statement on the Father Sheen situation. Thank you for standing up for Catholic orthodoxy.

Ad multos annos!

In Christ,

Mark O'Malley

I would encourage all Catholic FReepers to drop him a note of thanks and support!

What were his heretical statements?

Good for Bishop Choby!

Unfortunately Fr. Breen’s observations in the video were right on the mark, and could have been equally honestly made by any number of dedicated priests of Fr. Breen’s age and older. These are men who love the Church and care enough to be honest in spite of the risks. What is really sad is that such men, also committed to their service of the people of God, must compromise their integrity. It is a mark of the poor quality of the Church's current leadership, that such issues cannot be discussed openly.

This priest sounds like one of the generation ordained during the wacky 60s. It will be a very good thing for the Church when that generation of priests retires. My God richly bless the priests of that generation who DID live out their vocation in humility, obedience, and faith.

The new crop of young men in the seminaries are much more orthodox and this can only help our Church. In addition, we will be getting the wonderful, faith-filled transfusion from all the converts who were zealous and smart enough to find their way to us!

The winnowing out continues.

Thank you, Holy Spirit, for continuing to guide our Church!
