Here I am, Lord

"There should be, and probably are, Church laws against Catholic dioceses and colleges sponsoring workshops by former priests living what most Catholics consider a scandalous lifestyle. But as one of our local pastors quipped, when asked why his parish was making a liturgical change that violated Canon Law, 'In this diocese, we don't obey Canon Law. We obey the bishop.'"

Never mind the fellow's sexual preference. I think he's the main reason (to quote a book title) that Catholics can't sing -- and don't want to. And why others head East.
