But Of Course Political Correctness Would Lead To This...
As if we didn't know

I remember a handful of years ago, reading that; ... the Irish Bishops decided to remove seven New Testament scriptural readings from the Mass because they were "liable to give contemporary society an undesirably negative impression regarding women".And yes, the article from The Post (Ireland) includes the seven passages that were removed from the Mass readings. Scroll to the end of the article. Silly Sts. Peter and Paul. What were they thinking?

Anyhow, I got to thinking the other day about just how far PC has crept into Christianity. I recently read Galatians 3:28, which states: There is neither Jew nor Greek: there is neither bond nor free: there is neither male nor female. For you are all one in Christ Jesus.

Yep, I'm sure many of you know where I'm going... and yes, I actually found the following from those worshippers of The Sacred Orgasm over at the UCC; When will the Church finally be brave enough to say with Paul, “in Christ there is neither Jew nor Greek, slave or free, male or female,” gay or straight?And if anyone thinks they're referring to celibate homosexuals who realize that homosexuality is intrinsically evil and a grave moral disorder... then I have a bridge in Brooklyn that you might be interested in.

  1. "When will the Church...say WITH PAUL..."

    I'm sure St. Paul is tickled pink to have that particular gem extrapolated from his epistle...

  2. It's just over a year since I left a parish where the pastor nearly did say something like that in homily.

  3. It's a good thing that St. Paul isn't here, he'd be ripping into the Irish Bishops right now.
