Archbishop Conti of Glasgow and his letter to his priests

See WDTPRS in sidebar for the text the letter with Fr Z's comments.

Not really recovered from the Rodez appointment, the Archbishop leaves me totally speechless.

I can't find any reference to Archbishop Conti on Fr Z but Damian Thompson has it now and Linen on the Hedgerow too.

Fr Z has posted again since then. You need to scroll to his previous post. Yes, Damian had it at about the same time. Will look at 'Linen'.

Yes, Jane, 'speechless' is a polite way of putting it.

Have scrolled down to Fr Z's Sunday supper but can't see his mention of Archbishop Conti anywhere!

Jane said...

If I weren't speechless I should risk lack of charity!

God bless,

Don't know where it's gone from his post list, but if you google 'Fr Z Glaswegian Archbishop's hostility to the Motu Proprio', you should get a link. It's well worth finding and reading. Get back to me if you can't find it.

Following your link I've found the post dated August 2007 on Fr Z about the Archbishop's comment on the Motu Proprio. However if you referred to the letter mentioned on DT today then perhaps it has been taken off. Fr Z may have wanted to rewrite it or remove it for aome reason. Pity - I would have liked to have read his comments.

Jane said...

Yes, I think he must have taken it off. He closed the com box on it anyway.

It's a pity because he showed that ++ Conti was working from a poor English translation of the MP and not from the Latin.

It's back! Bonne journee Jane!

This is not the one he had up last night. This one is altogether more tempered. I think he must have regretted being so critical in the first reaction.
