McCarrick Resigned from the College of Cardinals, Wherein Fr. Z Rants

. . .lots of people are really angry, indeed enraged.  Horrid situations such as those caused by men like McCarrick are painful.  We can make choices about how to view them.  Anger is appropriate, but not to the point where we are merely giving voice to our spittle-flecked Ids.  Sad situations like this must be taken as an opportunity for grace.  When you see this filth in the Church, remember that Christ created His Church for sinners: you, me & McCarrick.  If anger is the first impulse that we have when we see this awful stuff, the second impulse must be to say, “God, have mercy on me, a sinner!”, & then go to confession & do some penance. . .

Free at Last: From Dominican ‘Catholic’ College to a True Catholic College

. . .I’ve been in “the academy” since I arrived as a freshman at Princeton in 1977.  It’s more than forty years now, & in that time I’ve come to see how big a swindle most of the college system in the United States has become, how far removed from reality, the common good, the intellectual life, & the development of moral citizens out of the raw young stuff of passions & folly. . .
