another apology and other matters

Further apology needed as I do not now think I will be able to post tomorrow. My old friend and confessor #Fr John Hartley is out of hospital and I wish to see him tomorrow. So I wont have time for the hPress comments.


I read a rather alarming talk given by the Holy Father to a group of American Bishops (from Vat News) He speaks of a growing threat in the States that freedom of religion is under attack from the secular humanists in the States who in some states at least refuse to concede to medics who state a conscientious objection to performing immoral procedures on patients like abortion etc. The Holy Father is alarmed that an anti Catholic prejudice is growing over there.
