What I find astonishing is that the parish council wants to force the priest to disobey Church law on this kind of matter. The priest should replace those people w/ real Catholics.

It’s always thrown me that there are so many people that are “catholics” but don’t believe much of what their denomination teaches. Either you are your denomination and believe and teach what that denomination says, or you aren’t and you determine where you need to be based on your own current studying of God and the bible.

Sadly, parish council members are often "inherited" by the priest. The new priest knows no one in the parish, and he is faced with endless meetings involving elderly leftists who insist on doing things their way. He is dependent upon them, since they are locals who know everyone and he cannot possibly organize and take care of all the parish business himself.
