Ivory Towers

Such a limited view for such a high and lofty place.

It is too much. Terry sums it up best. The paths that are being travelled are a distraction and a tactic to muddle the issue. Few are dealing with this in an honest and sincere manner. The attacks on individuals, and the use of double standards and contradictory tactics is mind-boggling. I have lost a lot of respect for a lot of bloggers in this ordeal. Not because I disagree, but because of the tactics used.

The worst part though, is that there are certain bloggers sitting in their ivory towers passing out judgement and decrees because they believe they are experts on the situation. I don't mean the actual experts, I mean those that think that they are above the rest of us, for whatever reason.

I have made my case. You can agree or disagree with my take. If the Archbishop ever makes a statement on the matter, I will follow and respect his lead on the issue. Until he does though, I imagine this situation will continue to wage on in the blogs, and it will continue to become more and more convoluted.

{Edit}:
If this matter was solely about the protection and preservation of proper Magisterium teaching, this matter would have been handled behind the scenes and in private. Voris and RCTV did not make this matter a public fight. They did not fire the first shot. I am saddened that no one else is taking issue with how the AOD is handling this. Also, I find it odd that people claim that Voris is "disobeying" his Bishop. To this day I have not seen one official or unofficial statement from the Archbishop. Wouldn't that make a difference?

There are more appropriate things for me to blog about...we should all try and remember what our vocation and role in the Church are. We should be constantly acting in a manner which brings greater glory to God, and seeks the salvation of souls...
