Fathers Day, Part II

"When a man can put aside his plans in order that another may thrive and prosper, then he exercises true fatherhood."


-Fr. Tom Carzon, OMV

I find it mildly amusing...

...that prominently displayed in the newspaper machine in front of the King Soopers i just left was a Safeway ad claiming "we have the lowest prices!"

How ironic is it that pride fest -in some ways the product of the "fatherless generation-" is being held in Denver on Father's day weekend?

Those who are not fathers, those whose children do not have fathers, and those whose very attitudes were produced by a fatherless society --- what are they celebrating? Do they feel left out? Is it a type of rebellion?

"Niech zstąpi Duch Twój i odnowi oblicze ziemi tej."

-JP II in Poland, June 1979 

"It is not the deed but the intention of the doer which makes the crime, and justice should weigh not what was done but the spirit in which it is done."

-Heloise in "Letters of Abelard and Heloise"
