I thought idiotic antics at the Novus Ordo couln't get any sillier, but this blurb from en.news proved me wrong. And to think the clown-in-chief was a bishop. Shame, shame, shame on you, Bp. Lowe.
New Zealand: The Content of the Novus Ordo? Snickers...
The Presiding Bishop of New Zealand, Steve Lowe of Auckland, wore a pallium-like lei made of Snickers bars (sic) during a May 19 Novus Ordo Eucharist in his cathedral. Leis are traditional garlands made from flowers or shells. The occasion was a Eucharist for Liston College, a Catholic school for boys aged 12 to 18. Some of them were baptised and confirmed during the Snickers show. If nothing else, Lowe was very effective in conveying to the boys that the Novus Ordo is a bad joke.
So corporations can buy advirtisement on vestments now....I guess Bud Lite could try to make a comeback that way.
ReplyDeleteMay be a maker of millstones could buy the advertising space and give the creeps a free seaside vacation.
ReplyDeleteThat picture is absolutely revoltingly degusting. Thank God for the SSPX. I marvel at the SSPX priests' vestments. They're so incredibly beautiful that a person can spend Mass immersed in just the beauty of the vestments alone.
ReplyDeleteThey'll be advirtising for Target next.
ReplyDeleteWell, since the pallium normally indicates a prelate's jurisdiction over a major Metropolitan See, we may be able to infer something from this picture. I suspect he is in fact the Patriarch for Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory, charged with guiding as many Oompa Loompas to heaven as possible. Now, we can only wonder what he was preaching. Perhaps . . . "Ommpa Loompa, Doopity Dee, if you are wise, you'll listen to me."
