I love the shallowness of this reply. You don't get to perform your acoustic guitar St. Louis Jesuits "Bread of Life" ditties anymore. Instead Fr. Planty has installed liturgically pure compositions, namely Gregorian chant and organ music. Now you don't fit in.

Or, you want to join your "VOICE" friends to support some affordable housing project. You ask for help, and Father rightfully asks what on Earth housing finance has to do with salvation!? Again, you don't fit in.

Or you want to teach in the religious education program, but you married a divorced Protestant. Well, of COURSE Father told you that you can't appear before the children. Yet again, you don't fit in.

St. Charles was a haven of secularism before Father became pastor. There was no spiritual and theological core. To purify the Parish, some dirt and mud needed to be washed away. PP, you're some of that mud.

Genuinely curious: which part of the above response are you proudest of?  When you were composing your thoughts, which part would you say was most influenced by Christ and all you have learned as a Catholic?[/quote]

That's what I was thinking too.  Is this how you show your Lenten Charity and Grace?  I enjoyed St. Charles before Fr. Planty, enjoyed the community under Fr. Tuck and under Fr. Gerry Creedon.  I do miss Fr. Clement and Fr. Creedon especially.  I certainly felt there was a spiritual core and a welcoming community.  I'm not sure how welcoming or Christian it is if you are an indication of this new pure sect.  Thankfully I don't think you are.  [/quote]
