Judo and College

[Allinall]

Sooooooo...you'll be taking vows and oaths that priests usually take?  

[Tibby]

More of an anointing then an oath and vow, but Eventually, yes, I will do all the ceremonial stuff required to become a priest of my rite.

[Willowbirch]

Yeah.. Kinda of... Not really...

I don’t see there being anything to justify. Correcting someone when you are challenged is one thing, justifying your hobby is another. Everyone has the right to have hobbies, whether you’re a High Schooler, a Priest, a Doctor, or whatever. I’m don’t think they should mix, no. I think Public office, Priest, politician, etc, has to keep a level of professionalism, yes. I’m not going to hold impromptu Classes on the Sanctuary floor. I'm not going to get mad at a church goer and Ogoshi him thru the window! But I don’t believe God bars us from having hobbies, because we are Christians, especially those in ministry, who no doubt need to unwind more then most! God made us, and the things we enjoy doing is part of us. It just so happens I enjoy rolling on the floor in thick, hemp bath robes

Well, there are a lot worse things Tibby could be doing...Maybe I've missed something, but I'm not sure why Judo is such a bad thing?  

[Tibby]

I think he just meant it was strange, as you think of priests as normally being meek, peaceful men of God, not Warriors. I don’t think he meant it was bad, I just think me meant it was a conflict of Stereotypes.

Again, this is what I think.

[Allinall]

Naah.  Judo's not strange for a priest.  Of course, now I'll have to call you "Grasshopper..."  

[Tibby]

haha

[Symphony]

Well, I think Jesuits use to carry sidearms, under their robes?  


No, Tibby, I'm just yankin' yore chain, bro.  

Judo would be nice to have in any situation.  No problem.


Jim Elliot, the missionary, along with three or four others, in Ecuador, marytyred by the Aucha(?) Indians in 1956, was a competition wrestler, I think...

[Tibby]

The Jesuits in the 3 Musketeer's did,  

You need to use smiley's! lol.

I could join the CWF, too, with judo being so similar haha, They could call me the Priest, and my catch phrase would be "It's time to confess" lol.

that's a good one, Tibby.  

[Symphony]

hehe,

and how about this for your license plate, "REPENT!"


   

[Tibby]

Cathaholic  

[Symphony]

Um, one other eensy, teensy, weensy little thing here, Tibby, um, If we're going to be a priest, um, are we able to be, um, dating the girlie wirlies??   Um, you know, like "celibacy"?


   

[Tibby]

That is Rome, and they only maintains this tradition for political reasons.  And they even have a small number of married priests, as ministers from other denominations wish to join, but already have wives. Most every other Catholic rite allows for married priests. As the Archdeacon once said “We need our wives to keep us in line”


And if it where the case, I'd become a fundie before I gave up girls...
