He has a bone to pick with the English bishops and uses every opportunity to run things down. Some will say that the same thing is also said in the Catholic Herald. But of course, since Damian Thompson also is an editor there!<br />Instead of being positive and trying to help the Ordinariates, all he has done is foster distrust and animosity because a lot of Catholic communities have welcomed their new brothers and sisters from the CoE and all they hear is how badly these new Catholics are being treated. It's enough to make anyone resentful about the Ordinariate. What Damian needs to do is to wind his neck in and shut up.<br />If I want to know what is really going on, I'd read posts from Fr Edwin Barnes, once the Bishop of Richborough, and other priests who have taken up the Pope's offer and know first hand how things are going, than someone like Damian who thinks he knows whats going on.Terrynoreply@blogger.com
