Re: The Natural Superiority of Mules

Hello Ann,

Thank you. I haven’t attended Mass in almost a decade. I’m as stubborn as a mule and Red “Francis” is an excellent excuse to stay home and sleep in. Certainly, I’ve had the urge to return. And abandoning the Church in its time of need isn’t my style.

Your post about the benefits of Mass was the final straw. You gave me that final push out the barn door. I found a Latin Mass here in the area. My first ever. The priest managed to denounce abortion, same-sex “marriage”, and Red “Francis” in one short sermon. It was good to be back. It was necessary.

I was starving and have now been nourished. You have my eternal gratitude.

Thanks again,

Tenacious D

[Can’t resist given the reference.  If you haven’t seen “Going My Way”, you should.  I’m going to do a Christmas piece on it this year because it is a fascinating look at the immediate pre-Asteroid Church.  If you want to do a little pre-study, watch “Going My Way”.  If you know the movie well, and know where I’m going with this, feel free to send in thoughts.]
