From Julian Hayda, on John McCain

Last updated on: August 25, 2018 at 11:49 pm By Justin Tse

These are the only words that I will share about John McCain, from my brother Julian Hayda, shared with his permission. Without asking him to write them, I waited for him to come through, as we have had many conversations about this topic, and he did so, masterfully: It’s really interesting to see how many people are calling John McCain a “true friend of Ukraine.” I was there when he showed up on the Maidan unannounced. From the moment he showed... Read more

Writing to clarity on the abuse crisis in the Latin Church

Last updated on: August 24, 2018 at 5:25 pm By Justin Tse

Over the past week or so, I’ve been trying to work through what I think of the recent abuse crisis in the Latin Church. I did so because I have a blog, and what one does on such platforms is to work through one’s own thinking. The objective is to muddle through to clarity. I am flattered that some people called my ramblings ‘articles.’ Articles have coherence, even a modicum of authority. Blog posts are still in a state of process. They are... Read more

It’s only as good as we practice it: clarifying my Greek Catholic thoughts on the sex abuse crisis

Last updated on: August 20, 2018 at 7:05 pm By Justin Tse

An Eastern Catholic writing colleague of mine wrote after my post last week on the Pennsylvania grand jury report on the Latin Church that it is our problem too. He attached what I think is the closest thing we have to an omnibus of news articles from the Survival Network of those Abused by Priests (SNAP) on the crimes of Fr John Danilak and its cover up by the Byzantine Catholic Bishop Andrew Pataki in the Eparchy of Passaic, as...

I know a priest who is gay

Last updated on: August 17, 2018 at 3:51 pm By Justin Tse

The fresh wounds wrought by the newest revelations of sex abuse in the Latin Church have prompted a lot of soul-searching among many who call themselves Catholic, and despite my Eastern Catholicism, I find myself doing the same. An interesting bit of commentary on the crisis revolves around gay priests, who are said to be organized (pace the Catholic sociologist Andrew Greeley’s immortal phrase) as a lavender mafia. I have no reason to doubt that there are such cabals that exist. The... Read more

Nothing surprises me anymore – until it does: reflections on the Pennsylvania grand jury report and bishops’ conferences

Last updated on: August 16, 2018 at 7:55 pm By Justin Tse

As I read the grand jury report from Pennsylvania on the sex crimes of priests in the Latin Church and the cover-up perpetrated by their hierarchy, I had several moments of reflection about why I was so fascinated by the affair. Perhaps it was, I thought, that so many of my colleagues in the Catholic intellectual world have been commenting about it, and for many of them (as well as for the Orthodox, it seems, as one commentator made clear...

The kairos of the Dormition and the death of superstition

Last updated on: August 15, 2018 at 8:49 am By Justin Tse

The Orthodox theologian John Panteleimon Manoussakis has a fascinating passage in his first book God After Metaphysics where he performs a brilliant reading of a moment in Dionysius’s Divine Names: As you know, once we and many of our holy brethren, as well as James, the brother of God, and Peter, the highest and eldest summit of the theologians, were gathered together to view the God-receiving and life-giving body. At that time it was determined to have all the hierarchs offer hymns to the unlimited power... Read more
