Felix Fidei Defensor...?

It appears that Monsignor Furretti has taken her blessing seriously...

I had a copy of The Catholic Times which I had been looking at purely because I wanted to see if Monsignor Basil Loftus had really written an article stating that Christ's presence after the Resurrection wasn't a physical presence but a spiritual one. (He had.) This was before Fr. Finigan's excellent blog post on the subject... and it pretty much said everything I was thinking (and more) so I never got around to publishing my own post.

I also had a copy of The Remnant, which I get from Tom, one of our visiting schola members.

Monsignor Furretti, in one of the mad half-hours common to all kittendom, threw both papers onto the floor, examined them, and promptly shredded The Catholic Times, leaving The Remnant intact. I happened to tweet the event, and was told "Photos, or it didn't happen!"

So...




Red Maria thought Monsignor Loftus might consider issuing a writ against Monsignor Furretti...

  2. It may be even more that a simple case of good taste...could the good monsignora have inherited the powers of the late great Paul the Octopus....and be making a prediction of her own....

  3. Maybe what you need is a kitty papoose! Now be fair; she could have been trying to save a cutting of the article.
    My writ is in the post.

  8. We shall, of course, be delighted to act for her pro bono should she receive any misguided writs from Monsignori . . !
