Did you know the Archbishop of New York, Timothy Dolan, has a blog? I didn't either, but I found out today because he is really, really pissed off at The New York Times and Maureen Dowd in particular.
It was her op-ed piece of October 25th that got his blood boiling in which Maureen opined that nuns are now, have always been and always will be, second class citizens.
The Archbishop called her editorial "the most combustible," "intemperate and scurrilous" "diatribe".
I disagree, Your Holy Rollership. I think all the points that Ms. Dowd makes regarding the hypocrisy and misogyny rampant in the Catholic church are right on the money. Nuns ministering to homosexuals is outrageous by papal standards?
Ms. Dowd opines that The church can be flexible, except with women. Absolutely true in my book and that may be its undoing.
