Just heard that Archbishop Raymond Burke is leaving the Archdiocese of St. Louis for the Vatican. Upon reflection, I realized that he is the Church's equivalent to the ECW wrestler, The Big Show. Few delivereth the smack-down with the frequency of the Archbishop. He took tough stands, knowing he would be hated for it. That's guts.
The reflections of Shane Kapler - not a member of religious order or movement, but a garden variety dad - excited by what it means to be "just a Catholic."
(It's like saying you're "just a billionaire.")
