He’s probably a homosexual and does not want Archbishop Chaput to get him fired before the Pope arrives.

Musically, the previous papal visit was a disaster. Hope this one is better.

That the “musical chief” is photographed in front of an organ speaks very well of him. May this be resolved.

I think of modern church songs as a little bit of purgatory on earth!

I very much agree with you. It is clear that Romeri needs some prayers for the cultivation of humility...to begin with.

[We also know that the press/media doesn’t like Archbishop Chaput either.]

May our Great and Good God protect and vindicate the good Archbishop and may he grant mercy to Mr. Romeri. Amen.

You really have to weigh things. We have one priest here who is an absolute flake most of the time, gives long rambling homilies full of jokes - but, oddly enough, he occasionally says something excellent - and has actually only recently ceased to ad-lib (he’s retirement age).

I think he’s quite orthodox and one of the sad things, I think, is that he’s felt apologetic about it for all these years and knew he was not one of the “in-crowd,” that is, they were not orthodox and mostly gay and he would not have been acceptable to our former (female) vocations director.

So I definitely cut him some slack.

I don’t think it much matters what type of music and liturgy is used while this fraud/imposter/demon-influenced ‘pope’ is in town
