Long live His Holiness Pope Benedict XVI, gloriously reigning.
Gloria Patri et Filio et Spiritui Sancto, sicut erat in principio, et nunc, et semper in saecular saeculorum. Amen.
I won't let it go to my head... "Look everybody!"
Anyway, in other news, Fr Gabriel Amorth has suggested that the Harry Potter books and yoga are about as good and healthy for us spiritually as rock and pop music. He has a point. The Potter books encourage children to dabble in witchcraft and the occult. Witchcraft and the occult are about seeking power over people, time and places through mediums and spirits. Yoga teaches people that they are on the road to 'enlightenment' through the self when in fact the only light of the World is Lumen Christi.
Try telling that to Telegraph readers though.
I just got back home from St Mary Magdalen's Catechism Evening. Hoards of the Catholic press were camped outside my front door. Flippin' media! I'm going on that Leveson inquiry next week. Why don't they leave me in peace!?
"Mr England," they said, "give us your thoughts on the Eurozone crisis?!"
Obviously, I replied, "When the Eurozone returns to Our Lady, then Our Lady will return to the Eurozone!"
Ah, the press lapped it up. Lapped it up, they did.
