Jack outed himself.

Was gobsmacked over the Christmas.Jack (not his real name) a long time and respected friend of mine outed himself.He has reached the stage where he cannot conceal it anymore.He wants everybody to know he is a practising Catholic.We know that he goes to Mass every Sunday and Holy day.He can no longer conceal the fact that whenever possible he goes to God,s house and prays for his people ,his family and the world's Ill's.He is prepared to put up with the jibes of those who have turned their backs on Christ.
One of many I would say.
On the subject of which does anybody see any  progression on the savaging of our faith by those in high office,the promise to decommission Catholic confession,the petty withdrawal of the Ambassador to the Vatican,the attack on Catholic education, the theft of religious artifacts from Holy Cross ,the necessity to guard the cars of Dunderry Massgoers and the torching of St.Catherine's Church in Meath Street.
Add in the absence of compassion for those under pressure,reporting anonymously on your neighbour and you can see where it is heading.
God help us and protect us.
