“Oh for heaven’s sake, what’s the big deal? Sally, your cousin puts dresses on his cats” The question is, as always, what would Jesus do? According to “Lars and the Real Girl,” which, if you haven’t seen it you really must, he would, for one thing, “play along.” And also, sit quietly and bring a casserole. Read more

GODSTUFF PFLEGER ISN’T ALONE IN RHETORICAL MISSTEPS. St. John the Divine in Silence/17th-century Russian icon In the face of silence (as in the absence of proof) we are left with theories. Since Thursday afternoon, when a group of parish leaders from St. Sabina Roman Catholic Church met privately with Cardinal Francis George at the archdiocese’s pastoral center, there has been silence. No one is talking. Not Sabina’s embattled pastor, the Rev. Michael Pfleger. Not the parish’s pastoral associate and effective... Read more

Trouble me. O no, I see,A spider web is tangled up with me,And I lost my head,The thought of all the stupid things I’d said. O no, what’s this?A spider web, and I’m caught in the middle,So I turn to run,The thought of all the stupid things I’ve done, And I never meant to cause you trouble,I never meant to do you wrong,And I, well if I ever caused you trouble,And oh no, I never meant to do you harm....

GODSTUFF FATHER PFLEGER: ‘A DANGEROUS TIME IN AMERICA … YOU HAVE TO WHISPER YOUR THOUGHTS’ On Sunday morning, I was enjoying a brisk walk along the Hudson River in lower Manhattan and some quiet contemplation when my cell phone rang. It was my editor. “Mike just called, and he wants to talk, but he’ll only talk to you,” he said. Mike, as in the Rev. Michael Pfleger, the perpetually embattled pastor of St. Sabina Roman Catholic Church in Chicago, who... Read more
