Roman Catholic Womenpriests : "Our Children No Longer Belong"



Our Children No Longer Belong


Our Children are Spiritual.

They are Good People.

Institutional Church does not speak to them where they are.

Our Children have good values.

They are educated.

They are Leaders

in Universities, in Businesses, in Government,

in the Arts and in the Professions.

Institutional Church does not speak to them where they are.

They demand more of Church than did we or our parents.

They are used to operating in professional environments

that demand Accountability.

Their companies and non-profits

demand Transparency.

They will not offer their time, talent, treasure

to parishes or dioceses

that ignore the notions of

Accountability and Transparency.

Institutional Church does not speak to them where they are.

Our post-Vatican II Children

see no reason why church should operate

on a wholly different plane

than every other significant institution in our society.

Church hierarchy cannot treat our Children as uneducated serfs

in the world’s last major feudal monarchy

and expect them to

Pay, Pray, and Obey.

Though it may have named us,

Institutional Church, as it is now,

can never name our Children.

Thank God.

Love, John Chuchman
