In the thread called Growing Up Traditional, June 16 of this year Jim invited participants.(in the Catholic Living in the Modern World)

Also, I thought he invited people with another point of view to get involved on one of his shows.

I did ask many people who lived here to come including priests, but they all declined, for one reason or other, but mostly fear.

Not one person who actually lives here has approached me and critized me to my face, or said we were unbalanced. I have had many people including priests tell me that everything on the shows were totally accurate.

Actually they were pretty mild, they could have been much much worse. I turned people away who had some real horror stories.

My point in doing these shows was to give people who are thinking of uprooting themselves a real life view of living here.

As far as Emma, I did not know her, so I didn't know that she apostated. I thought she just fell away, if you thought I led her on then hey your entitled to your opinion. I tried to be as fair as possible.

The talk with John who went to St Mary's was pretty positive.

Like what was mentioned I did invite the critical people from this forum to come on but not one person stepped up. Pretty typical

There are some who just get nervous when speaking on the radio or T.V. and if effects what they might actually want to say, they forget! That is probably what would have happened to me, anyway. I would come off like the Press Secretary Robert Gibbs eh! ah! oh!, ehhh! ummm!

I attend Mount St. Michael; true story, about 10 years ago, my grandson, Victor age 3 was at the cemetary at the City of Mary with his parents on Memorial Day. He was bitten by a tic there and died about a week later, so fast. We never went back there since. Nothing to do with the Church, but just a very sad memory.
Although our family has received unusual and miracously like happenings from this tradigy.

Since you seem to know so much about the affair it sounds like you were actually pretty well acquainted with her.

But it begs the question... why instead of asking the issue to be addressed by the superiors did you instead go make a news story out of it? Why not bring it to the attention of the directors of the school, and if not them WHY NOT THE DISTRICT SUPERIOR??

I think someone without an agenda who is truly concerned would seek amendment, not go about trying to cause scandal ON THE OUTSIDE by rabel rousing (which btw, is what "reporters" do). Your methods, jmid, are not those of a person of good will.
