You Can Take the People Out of the 50s...

A crazy debate is being had over at the Fair Amy's over an upcoming debate from Catholic (Wrong) Answers over the validity of the Novus Ordo. Oh, and they also claim that all ordinations under the1973 Rites are invalid.

This is so Mel Gibson's Holocaust-denying father it gives me the creeps.

I'll repeat what I posted there here: Why the hell do we need to debate these people? Just because they've got unresolved issues from their childhood doesn't mean that the rational among us all have to suffer for it. I love the Indult, and the freedom to either drive 30 miles to it or 30 miles away from it. But this just screams Me-ism. (And "I'm Too Pretty"-ism....) If ya don't like the way things are, just go to Mel's church in LA -- he's got the money to expand it, and you can wear all the mantillas you want to. Girls do just want to have fun, after all, even if mantillas are for women only... well, at least in public.

To close, I received Keating's note with the following subject line from Ichiban Jim at the San Fran desk: "WHAT A CROCK! DON'T THESE PEOPLE HAVE ANYTHING SERIOUS TO WORRY ABOUT?"

The man's got a point....
