By calling ourselves Catholic, we are expected to be obedient to our shepherds, no matter how we may feel about the growing liberality of U.S. dioceses. Maybe Mel, et al. need to read scripture and see the importance that God places on obedience over all other things. God asked Abraham to do the unthinkable and sacrifice Isaac (as a foreshadowing of Christ's sacrfice), and Abraham obeyed. God, of course, stopped him. God will surely take care of the Church He built.
Maybe Mel Gibson needs to re-examine his reasons for rejecting the Post-Vatican II Church. Although we may empathize with his love of the Latin rite and pre-V2 trappings, he may eventually find himself more closely identifying with a man named Luther than a man named Peter if he isn't careful...
"Cranmer" is what I was thinking. The Anglican communion certainly knows how to stage a pretty show. For those who like that sort of thing, it's just the sort of thing they will like.
