A Vortex Blooper??

I find myself in agreement with the Vortex 99.9% of the time.  However, it's that 0.1% of the time where I must wonder what got into their drinking water.  This appears to be one of those rare moments.  Why on earth would Voris even suggest (even in jest) that faithful Catholics take erring bishops, etc to secular civil court for violations of the faith?  Yes, he said "secular", not "canonical".

He mentions the conservative Anglicans doing that in relation to keeping their church real estate, but that seems to be more of a matter as to which legal entity holds title to which properties.  Even then, they appear to be ascribing to courts the authority to determine what constitutes true Anglicanism.  Why, oh why, would any Catholic, with two working brain cells, even dream of throwing away their First Amendment rights in such a foolhardy venture?

From The "Gay Chutzpah" Department

I just read on Lifesitenews that "bishop (?)" Gene Robinson, the open gay who is commonly held to be clergy, is trying to tell Pope Benedict XVI how to fix the clergy sex abuse crisis in the Church.  I kid you not!  Naturally Robinson declares that there is no connection between homosexuality and this plague!  Understand that?  No connection whatsoever!  Just because 90% of the cases involve the buggering of adolescent boys (as opposed to girls) doesn't mean there's one bit of homosexual impetus - that 90% is the merest of coincidences - right?

Meanwhile, traditional Anglicans, fed up with the departure from Scripture as typified by Robinson, have requested entrance into the Roman Catholic Church.  I suppose that's part of the "coincidence", too?
