As I sit here before my keyboard, ready to post about the dismal news articles that continue to make the headlines in our screwed up world, I suddenly realize that I am in rather good mood about things.
Dad's just come home from Connecticut, I've has a pretty darn good day at work, I've got a nice glass of tea next to me, I'm expecting a phone call this evening, and I've got some great Southern Rock playing in the background (Marshall Tucker, Molly Hatchet, Lynyrd Skynyrd, and the Allman Brothers).
To be honest, I'm sure I'll manage to become a dismal, depressed lump again soon, but until then, I'm good.
So now for the question of the day: how in Hell does Mahoney (or for that matter, many other people, such as "Father" Fred Bailey) continue to get away with the stuff he's pulling? Commenting on his latest bash myself is almost redundant, as you can find coverage of the the Los Angeles Religious Education Congress (also known as MahoneyFest and BaloneyFest) all over:
What "Religious Educators" REALLY Learn in L.A. - Catholic Cavemen
BaloneyFest 2007 - V! For Victory
More on Mahoney's RE Congress - The Cafeteria is Closed
Comming to L.A. Tomorow... - Christus Vincit
Another Festival of Dissent - RomanCatholicBlog.com
LifeSiteNews.com Coverage
(Thanks to Christus Vincit's post for three of the other links.)
So back to my question: why hasn't Mahoney been removed from his position. Heck, why hasn't he been excommunicated?
Great state of things we're in.
To end this post on a happier note, and a much sillier note, here is a little video on YouTube featuring one of my favorite musicians, Moby, in his REALLY early days - via Moby's journal, Schaumgummi.
