Greetings, loyal minions. Your Maximum Leader was pleased to hear that many Catholic Bishops have given special dispensations for Catholics to eat meat on Friday, St. Patrick’s Day. By giving the special dispensation, the Bishops are giving those who want to celebrate St Patty’s day with corned beef the opportunity to do so without committing a venal sin.
Of course, one wonders what other venal and mortal sins are going to be committed by the faithful (and not so faithful) on St Patrick’s day? Sins for which no dispensation s given. Humm….
And here is another question for you… If you Maximum Leader promises to put a new roof on the school over at Our Lady of Perpetual Guilt could he get a dispensation in advance for the commission of a mortal sin (or two)? Can you get advance dispensation? Or should one just commit the sin, buy the church school a new roof, THEN ask the Bishop to help you out? You gotta get the order right on these things…
Carry on.
