archbuggery
By Diogenes (articles ) | January 07, 2010 12:22 PM
Some stories paralyze parody. Milwaukee's cathedral boasts a bronze bas-relief with an image of former Archbishop Rembert Weakland, he of the durchgebohrte boyfriends and the $450,000 indent for hush-money. Objectors have been informed they misunderstand the artistic thrust.
Father Carl Last says SNAP's got it wrong. The image actually represents diversity.
He's got you there.

Hopefully this is a monument to how NOT to run a diocese!

Why content yourself with a few durchgebohrte boyfriends when you can bugger a whole diocese? Depravity knows no limits.

His Excellency has always been a daring risk-taker on behalf of his own soul, but this is rather like throwing your sins at the face of God. Either we have a closet atheist here or someone with a mental disorder that boggles the mind. As for Father Carl Last...let's hope that he is.

Insult to injury: "Weakland will be in town next week to discuss renovations to the church." I can hardly wait to see the results of THOSE consultations.

Diversity!!! It's "Diversity" that is ruining this nation. This tribute to Rembert Weakland is so appalling, I can't believe the people of Milwaukee will tolertate it.

I concur with some of the comments in the original citation: the current Bishop should have the bronze removed and melted down into something that honors our Mother rather than put up with this mockery.
