Caiaphas Apologizes For Christ

13 April AD 2014

This is too brilliant! By Vecchio di Londra in the comboxes of Father Z:

Dr Caiaphas, the Judaean Head Shul Co-ordinator, apologized today for the unfortunate course the seminar had taken. “It was entirely unforseen. This speaker has a motivational track record, with his popular message of peace and love, and his relaxed and forgiving attitude to multi-choice personal lifestyles. But today mid-lecture he astonished us all with a stream of irrelevant social theory about divorce and remarriage, repeatedly using judgmental words such as ‘fornication’ and ‘sin’ and ‘adultery’: then he came out with that obscure remark about ‘making oneself a eunuch for the kingdom of heaven’ which was of course deeply offensive to all our many, many transgendered and undecided-gender students…

I should have stopped him when I sensed things were going badly, after his initial non-inclusive reference to ‘male and female’. It was all most un-Christian. I even had some students coming up to me afterwards asking me to explain what fornication was – obviously, they’d never heard of it before, and why should they: ‘Sin’ is an optional senior course at this college.

Many of our sophomores were in floods of tears, some were utterly traumatized. We have requested Jesus of Nazareth to take a sabbatical while we sort out his future speaking engagements. I’m sorry to say he has refused, rather intemperately flinging around terms such as ‘vipers’, ‘whited’ and ‘sepulchres’. We take particular objection to the word ‘whited’, as in this college we are proud that everyone may, regardless of race, as well as of sexual orientation or gender identification or indeed none at all, may expect an education that is supportive and above all totally without any tendency to discriminate… “

Orwell said it well long ago:

Praying two or three major mysteries of the Holy Rosary daily isn’t enough. Four or rather All the major mysteries daily is a must. Buckle up and tighten the belt.
We’ve just entered the storm.

The news article Fr Z quotes starts out:

SOUTH KINGSTOWN — Kathleen Schlenz of Peace Dale knew something was wrong when her daughter, Anna, arrived home from school Friday.

The Rev. Francis “Rocky” Hoffman, a priest of Opus Dei, [I know him.] an orthodox division of the Roman Catholic Church

Um, I would certainly hope that all ‘divisions’ (dioceses, parishes, orders) should be orthodox.

I’m often reminded of John 6:60 “Many therefore of his disciples, hearing it, said: This saying is hard, and who can hear it?” and 6:66 “After this many of his disciples went back; and walked no more with him.”

This is after all what has happened regardless that it is transmitted as satire.

Liberalism deserves only to be held in loathing, disdain and contempt, treated solely with the laughing and ridicule that we express towards the Nazis while watching reruns of Hogan’s Heroes on TV.
