This year alone I learned two things -
Don't critcize a priest no matter how wrong he is, Only among the
provincials. Don't buy it.
Monsignor Tommaso Stenico, a high-ranking Vatican priest, is the
director of one of the three departments that make up the Congregation
for the Clergy, the Vatican "ministry" for the clergy. Click

The Wife of Bath was quite skilled at it: For now the great charity
and prayers
Of licensed beggars and other holy clergy,
That overrun every land and every stream,
Blessing halls, chambers, kitchens, bedrooms,
Cities, towns, castles, high towers,
Villages, barns, stables, dairies
There walks now the licensed begging friar himself
In late mornings and in early mornings,
And says his morning prayers and his holy things
As he goes in his assigned district.
Women may go safely up and down.
In every bush or under every tree
There is no other evil fornicator but he,
And he will not do them any harm except dishonor. Chaucer Click
