Calling All Dominicans and Allies...

A general chapter of the Order of Preachers is convening in Rome from August 31st through September 21, 2010.  One of the big items on the agenda is the selection of a new Master General of the Order.  Please pray for the triumph of unalloyed Catholicity at this general chapter!

  1. Thank you, TH2! Some kookburgers, alas, have worn the white habit; the Order of Preachers has not been entirely immune from the nutjobbery that has afflicted other orders. Let no nutjob be named as the successor of St. Dominic!

  2. I should say, some kookburgers have entered the Order but have altogether refused to wear the habit. Which I guess is good, because that makes it easier to recognize them. (It is too bad that they have misled well-meaning religious into following their unedifying example.)

  3. If a kookburger might be selected, all the more to pray. I like that word "kookburger", never heard that one before. Perhaps I shall steal it from you in the future.

  4. "Kookburger" is of my own invention. Please feel free to steal! I like the idea of starting a linguistic trend.

    And may the new Master General be a man after the heart of Holy Father Dominic.

  5. Did a Google search for "kookburger" and it seems somebody stole it from you already. Cooking video (2008) here. The search also came up with a post of yours from 2007 (prior). So it is still your word.
