Topsy and Tuptim Discuss the Synod Doc as a Propaganda Piece Outside the Washington Post

Washington Post building on K Street
Tuptim: It's kind of appropriate that we're sitting at an outside cafe near the Washington Post building. I always call it Pravda East! Did you know that K St. is a big center for lobbyists?

Topsy: Really?

Tuptim: Yup! When Mitt Romney was running for president, he called K Street the center of "influence peddling." What better place to talk about the Amazon synod. Influence peddling... that's what it's all about -- peddling the influence of the (making quote sign with her fingers) "progressive" wing of the Church.

Topsy: (Rollling her eyes...) Hmm...You mean the heretic wing!

Gosh, Don't You Just Love Robert McCartney's Tolerance?

A columnist in the Post yesterday, Robert McCartney, illustrated his tolerance and appreciation of diversity by bashing a priest friend of mine, Fr. John DeCelles, the pastor of St. Raymond's in Springfield. What did Father do to deserve his attention and vitriol? He replaced the Boy Scout troop in his parish with Trail Life USA, a Christian organization that expects members to shut up about their disordered sexual inclinations. Now remember, we're talking about groups that start admitting boys at, what, six years old? Many members are in the latency stage when sex is the last thing on their minds. But, hey, when recruitment of young, undiseased new gay boys is part of your agenda you want them talking about sex and "questioning" their "orientation" as young as possible. "Sex before eight or else it's too late." So let's all stand up with Robert McCartney and pledge allegiance to the rainbow flag.

But, oh my, McCartney is outraged!
