Prof. Potworowski and another expert, Guy Ménard, a professor of religious studies at the University of Quebec in Montreal, agreed there hasn't been such a broad, open protest in Quebec since the 1968 Humanae Vitae encyclical that declared contraception immoral.

Nineteen priests is a "broad" protest? How many priests are there in Quebec? Twenty seven?

Looks like they've learned nothing from the 1968 protests, either. The effect on Church teaching will be the same as the effect of the 1968 protests. Zero.

The faithful Catholic should be grateful to the protestors for performing a public service. This letter identifies priests and parishes which will be avoided by those not wishing to fulfill their Sunday obligation at parishes infected with the homosexual subculture and propaganda.

The province of Quebec has over 4,000 priests. Time to invoke rule #5 on this group of 19.

Rome pulled back from a hard line on rebellious priests in 1968. The didn't call Paul VI "Hamlet: for nothing.
