In the entrance to the Church office there was a big poster which drew my attention in particular. When I was ready to copy it, the Parish priest offered to have it sent to me to where I was staying. I had promised him that I would post it in the Net, specially Goanet. I remember a lot of discussions were going on, on Goanet then, about priests leading a life of luxury, driving cars, etc. Now with Joseph de Mello's and Albert's "points" for meditation? I got the opportunity to fulfill my promise "Our Priest? Always Wrong By Almost General Consensus - Especially of the Enlightened If the sermon is three minutes longer.he has a gas bag If the sermon is short.he didn't know what to say If in the sermon he talks loud.he never talks but shouts If his diction is soft.can't make out a word If he has a car.he is a worldly capitalist If he visits outside his parish.the man is everywhere If he visits families frequently.he is never at home If he stays at home.for him we could as well not exist If he talks money.that's all he knows: money If he doesn't organize feasts and outings.our parish is dead If he does.our parish is a circus If he takes time in the confessional.my! He is endless If he is quick.he doesn't know how to listen If he is punctual for mass. just like business to him If he happens to be late.always wastes our time If he renovates the church.all our money is wasted If he does not. everything is going to the pot If he talks alone to a woman.well, well. If he talks alone to a man.phew! If he prays lone in the church.should wake up a little If he is not seen often there .he is not a man of God If he takes interest in others.is he not nosy If he does not.he is a perfect egoist If he talks justice.why can't he leave politics alone If he tries to be prudent.there is a right-winger for you If he shows convictions.doesn't hide his leftist leaning If he is young.what experience can he have If he is old.he is behind our times. But if he dies, who will take his Place?" Moipas ani mog Livia
