This might fit here too: 

Quote
The Priest Is Never Right

If he is happy.........he is a nuisance.
If he is austere......... he is bad tempered.

If he is handsome......... why didn't he marry.
If he is ugly ......... nobody loved him.

If he is fat ......... he eats too much.
If he is thin......... he is stingy.

If he is tall......... he looks down on people.
If he is short......... he looks like an altar boy.

If he owns a car......... he likes material things.
If he walks......... he is old-fashioned.

If he visits the faithful......... he meddles in other people's business.
If he stays in the rectory......... he is an introvert.

If he talks about Heaven......... he is a modernist.
If he talks about Hell......... he is a Jansenist.

If he preaches long sermons......... he is boring.
If he preaches short sermons......... he doesn't want to get tired.

If he speaks normally......... you cant understand what he says.
If he raises his voice......... he screams.

If he asks for donations......... he is greedy.
If he doesn't ask for donations......... his bank account should be checked.

If he fixes up the chapel......... he doesn't care about peoples money.
If he doesn't fix up the chapel......... he doesn't care about the chapel.

If he is young......... he lacks experience.
If he is old......... he should retire.
If he is in between.........  he is in a critical age.

Do as he may......... or even if he does nothing, *he will never be right* !

But if he leaves......... who will take his place ?

Pray for him and help him
