A woman’s got to know when it’s time to leave…
Jeff Miller aka “The Curt Jester” has a post about women who were ordained as priests in a Protestant church - and insist they’re Catholic priests because they “remain faithful to the (Catholic) church”. They’ve been excommunicated, of course, but they and their supports don’t “feel” the excommunication.
Therefore, they’re not.
This actually reminds me of an interesting anecdote that someone told me (and I have permission to share). There was a married woman who started having an adulterous affair. Her husband and children were upset, of course, but even worse was the blithe way in which she wanted to incorporate her lover into their lives. Namely, she wanted her lover to move into the same home as her husband.
I know there are people (like NOW ex-president Patricia Ireland) who think that bigamy is fine if only people in the relationship are “open-minded”. However, the husband (and children) weren’t having it.
Her husband filed for a divorce. After it was finalized, the ex-wife continued to refer to herself as his wife. She remarried. When he remarried, she showed up at the hotel where the ceremony took place - with her NEW husband - in order to object.
So that’s what I think of women who excommunicate themselves and then insist they’re in communion with the Church.
So in other words you think they’re delusional, pathologically selfish, and perhaps borderline psychotic?
I have no PhD in psychology, so I don’t know. But I can make the diagnosis of bizarre with a full-blown Out-of-Whack Complex!
you don’t need to have DR or phd to know they aren’t right in the head. Am i being uncharitable? yes but its the truth. hows the school prep going sister
Well, brother, the school prep is hardly started. It’s amazing how the time flies when you’re doing other things and then - whammo! - you’re a week into August. So I’m going to hit the books starting Sunday, when I go to a teachers’ conference.
In other news, I was planning to take part in the Yard Sale Trail starting today, but my friend’s friend decided she didn’t want to host it. She changed her mind Wednesday, evidentally, so my friend’s garage is pretty full. We’re going to have it the weekend after next. I’m getting to the point of putting tags on everything I own and keeping the leftovers!
