Isn't is just like the media to pursue the "sex" angle! Last year their focus was on "gay pedophile" priests, now it has switched to the "healthy, good looking" (presumably heterosexual) young seminarians and priests.

If nothing else, this article makes for a good laugh.

Now if only a few of the priests will pose for the camera and then break into a chorus of "We're here and we're queer!", the New York Times will have a front-page above-the-fold breaking news story.

COLOGNE, Germany (Reuters) - Young priests in sharp suits and sunglasses are turning heads and winning hearts at the Catholic World Youth Day festival in Cologne.

Should I become a Priest or an Interior Decorator ........... Priest - Decorator ......... Priest - Decorator ....... Priest - Decorator?

"When I see his Holiness Benedictum XVI it brings tears to my eyes; I miss John Paul II; maybe because I am polish so its hard to explain; but I truly miss him; with all so many people he reminds me John Paul when he was around. May his holiness enjoy great stay in Germany his country and may God give him strength.

Father Meyer is from MY church!!! He is VERY traditional, and has a love for the liturgy, statues, and wears a cassock. He is much loved in this parish.
