"We're very thrilled about the opportunities that the theme park will bring to the Church. In particular, we're excited to see how it may become a tool for fostering a culture of open dialogue with in a fun and exciting setting," Muller said, before giving reporters an inside look at one of the rides being developed for the park. "We have many rides being developed as we speak, but one of my favorites is our state-of-the-art ferris wheel where Vatican and SSPX officials can sit down and discuss the important issues of Vatican II while going around in circles."
An SSPX spokesman later told Eye of the Tiber that they reject the premise of the theme park altogether, and that they plan to dissuade their followers from entering, saying, "It is an evil theme park; that is the correct term to …More

You mean we have not been in the park, these past 40 years?
I thought this park had the scariest FUNhouse on the planet.
Eye of the Tiber...they come up with some funny stuff! Of course, they could only exist in this amusement park reality we are all living in.

John is correct in his immediate reaction to "fun park" Rome. He has, however, not caught (or not mentioned) the ferris wheel jab by Archbishop Müler. Talking with the SSPX is just going around in circles and leading nowhere. The conclusion seems to be that such talks are really silly and useless. I veiw the jab as a relegation of the SSPX (including its preference for Latin in the Mass) as a backhand rejection of further serious confrontation (not dialogue as dialogues lead no where) which offers a soluton one way or another. Alas, Pope Francis has made it clear that any restoration is "ideology" and Latin is o.k. for people with a certain "sensitivity" (pyschological problem???). The Pope is not Goofy, rather a man who has affirmed Vat II and the changes it has brought about. Reactions of a negative sort are but "sensittivy", i.e., not to be taken seriously. Given the dancing bishops at the last Youth fling with the at time impius handing over the Eucharist to the "audience" suggests …More

(9/16/13)
Elderly priest Joseph Mwand'amba was attacked after leaving an Internet café in the Mlandege area. "He sustained burns in his face and shoulders. The acid burnt through his shirt," Zanzibar police spokesman Mohamed Mhina said.
Tensions have risen between the majority Muslim population and Christians have been on the increase in recent years, as well as on mainland Tanzania.
It's the fifth such incident in a series of assaults on religious figures in the country since Novenber, when a Muslim cleric was hospitalized with acid burns. A Catholic priest was shot dead in February.
An attack on two British girls in August occurred in the same part of Stone Town. The teenagers, Katie Gee and Kirstie Trup had acid flung at them as they visited Zanzibar on a volunteering holiday. Doctors believed that their attackers used sulfuric acid from a car battery. It's believed that the girls will need skin grafts.

Fort Worth, TX-- 77-year-old Richard Kantor of Fort Worth, Texas is reporting at this hour that he ain't no gay, and therefore not gonna hold another man's hand during the Our Father.
"I ain't gonna do it. Never did, never will. Wanna hold my hand, ask me on a date; but don't expect nothing less than a whack upside the head with this here stick, you hear me?"
Kantor, who says he typically prefers the Latin Mass because there is "no funny business" going on there, said that the last time a man tried holding his hand during the Our Father, he broke two of his fingers. "Turned it out to be my son...that one I regret. Still, he shoulda known better then to get all nancy with his old man."
At press time, Kantor was attending a local Novus Ordo, brimming with the anticipation of breaking another couple of fingers for the sake of orthodoxy and heterosexuality.

Hoping she drives, he'll probably ask her if she'd like to go with him to the Latin Mass.
I wonder what Richard would do if an attractive 60 something year-old lady extended her hand to him?!?
