GL responds: No more excuses! Raise the money! Offer it DIRECTLY TO THE LOWER CASTE CATHOLIC Goans who desire to join the seminary but cannot afford it. Let's see if there are any Givers and Takers. It can't get any simpler. Regards indifference of Europeans to Goan/Asian saints. Please tell us: How the Goan community, under your leadership, celebrated the Feast of Blessed Joseph in California? Did not see any posts before or after the fest. Thanks, Regards.
Jose Colaco: Well said George. And Catholics who normally make a big spiel about "cafeteria Catholicism" may wish to understand very clearly that: 1. The Caste System is contrary to Christianity 2. That the Death Penalty is contrary to the Commandment which says - Thou Shalt NOT kill. George Pinto: The issue is not a lack of funding... The issue is whether there is a will among church authorities and the laity to end the caste system practiced by some Goan Catholics> Gilbert Lawrence: But perhaps if Cornell and others feel there is casteism in Goa's Catholic church and DISCRIMINATION OF LOWER CASTE and want do something about it (rather than just talk and write), they can offer financially support for the cost of seeking vocations and training of lower caste priests in Goa's seminary>
