Julia's Catholic Sister~Womanhood According to the LCWR
Conservatives seem to be having a lot of fun with their own version of Obama's Julia, but this is the first version I've seen that takes the original seriously. The LCWR's Junia is a woman to watch out for--seriously. Well, this is a satire, (stupid me. It's a good thing I'm a good sport, Larry) but still it's pretty obvious why Archbishop J. Peter Sartain has been called on to try to straighten out the LCWR. He's a good, good man. I've known him since he was first ordained. I used to see him often at night in the church sitting in front of the Blessed Sacrament. Pray for him. He's also embroiled in a battle with his own priests in Seattle over gay marriage. Pray for him some more.
The sad thing about satire in our time is that the first two slides of the Junia presentation are really not even an exaggeration.
ReplyDeleteWell, I feel like a complete idiot, but I was thinking just that. I knew that Sr. Heidi whatever was not real but it was early, early and I shouldn't have written anything in a hurry, and then later when I started thinking about it, I was too busy to do anything.

Oh, I just took you to be writing tongue-in-cheek, as it were. If you hadn't changed anything, I'd be none the wiser!
