Our GOP never said a peep on the subject when it came to our own George Ryan (and there likely were valid legal grounds in that case), and then we still have senior George Ryan people still in senior posts running our State Party. Plus we won't even oust Kjellander (Individual K)from an internal party post.<br><br>The handful of reckless hypocrites pushing this should really stop throwing the rocks in their glass house.Dannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3709087743016851805.post-35004420085608934112007-07-10T13:58:33.000-05:002007-07-10T13:58:33.000-05:00I never suggested the USA Catholics did anything t...I never suggested the USA Catholics did anything to help the New England fishing industry. Nor did I ever suggest the two movements were contemporaneous, (and I do not know how you could have derived that from my post.) I had heard that New England fishermen originally created this promotion to advance their industry, and the Church picked up the same concept later as a way to demonstrate sacrifice.<br><br>I am more than aware of New England's history.

Unfortunately, there are multitudes that share his attitude toward JFK and so on that reason is impossible. Facts mean nothing to them. Also, is it not true that meatless Fridays originally came as a PR move to promote the New England fishing industry and was not picked up by the Vatican until years later? I have heard that. Please set the record straight if you know.

As long as I've known of him he's been a secular person, writing novels, opinion columns and teaching sociology in college.<br><br>It seems the Sun Times like him as a priest who speaks against the direction of the Catholic Church.<br><br>In my opinion, Greeley isn't a Catholic priest if he doesn't do the work of the Church. If you meet a non-practicing attorney, you don't ask him for legal advice. If you want the opinion of a priest, you don't go to a romance novelist.Freidrich Marchnoreply@blogger.com
