Holy Smoke Are the bishops seriously trying to stop priests from blogging? Although this quote is from the BCF,whose blog is allegedly one of those targeted, there are others out there who think so. KatyA |

I hope so, some bloggers have gone to far, and attack the Holy Father and Bishops in communion with Him, and make stupid comments and requests that can cause scandal. Bloggers must be true to the faith. |

Careful, Dylong. We might start making mention of pots and kettles. According to your interpretation of "true to" or theirs? It's a poor show if there isn't space for provocative comments in the world even in relation to Church matters. |

You would be hard pressed to find me being critical of the Pope and Bishops acting in faithful communion with him. I have made negative comments about some Bishops, and I acknolwedge that I wasnt always fair, and will try and be more positive in the future. Whilst, still drawing attention, in a hopefully charitable manner, to those Bishops not implementing Papal decrees. True to the Faith, in the Church sense, Holy Mother Church, the Pope and Bishops in Communion with Him. The Catechism would be a good start. |

Wouldn't it be great if every one of our bishops had a blog, with a facility for comments? That way we would get to know what HE is like, and he would know what the rank and file feel about developments in his diocese. One topic per week should keep the flock updated. |

A very thought provoking post by The Sensible Bond far too long to quote in full but well worth reading
Fr Ray's post is also the subject of DT's blog today as noted by The Sensible Bond. KatyA |

Fr Ray should be given a diocese. He has wisdom and courage, and is devoted to God and the Church. |

One can be brave when criticizing - aren't we all in that respect? However being brave in suggesting solutions and risking innovations is, in my opinion, quite another matter. PJD |
