The libertines who complain about clerical hypocrisy ignore the fact that hypocrisy only exists in the face of a standard. The Left's greatest achievement is to remove hypocrisy altogether. It's not just the double standards of holding others to rules unobserved, it's the absence of standards altogether that magically remove the stains of hypocrisy. The only hypocrites are those with standards, and, of course, they are to be judged, and viciously. | The libertines who complain about clerical hypocrisy ignore the fact that hypocrisy only exists in the face of a standard.

I got into a conversation after Mass on All Saints Day with a couple as they were walking out to their '06 Volvo XC70. I love this car -- mine is an '05. The '06 model year was the last of the "five lunger" -- the great Volvo five-cylinder (who'd ever do that but some snow-burned, daylight-deprived Swedish engineer?). It's a great car. Theirs, it turns out, has 200K miles, a good 30K more than mine. We agreed in 1) our love for this car; and 2) our dislike for newer cars that are overly light and overloaded by electronics. | |||
The conversation morphed into the Church and how the couple are Polish and Irish descendant, cradle Catholics, and I am a convert. It was great fun, until I got lectured on how Jesus drank wine out of a clay goblet, so why do we need this Cathedral? << imnage of C STM | |||
Went downhill from there, with an admonishment to vote the right way on Tuesday. Donald Trump, it seems, is the devil himself, and Kamala Harris is a decent honest person. That's all good. Each to his own. But then, "abortion." | |||
