If the priest
is good looking: Why didn’t he marry?If he is unattractive: He did not find anyone to marry!
If it wears civilian clothes: he is a worldly one.
If it wears his clerical suit: he is a traditionalist conservative.
If He does not treat to people with affection: He radiates coldness!
If he treats you nice with a smile: Careful, he has doubtful intentions!.
If he has long hair: oh, these revolutionary priests!
If he has short hair: HOW old fashioned!
If he remains in the parochial house: he does not visit the families.
If he starts making some visits: oh, he’s never in the parish!
If he starts doing some Repairs: he’s throwing money out of the window.
If he does not do it: he has everything abandoned
If he celebrates baptisms and marriages to ALL: He is not following the sacraments!
If He insists on the previous preparation: oh, he makes it so difficult for people.
If he has parochial advisers: He lets others run his life!
If it does not have parochial advisers: he is an individualist!
If he restores anything at the parish: what came over him now?
If he makes no changes: He never does anything at this parish!
If his Homily takes over 20 minutes: He’s like a radio station, will never finish speaking!
If his homily is brief: he does not explain the things well.
If it speaks with strong voice: he yells too much!
If he does in natural tone: oh he can’t talk!
If he touches social problems: he’s getting into politics.
If he speaks of Devotion and commitment: He’s old fashioned, get rid of him!!
If he walks alone: he’s a hermit and keeps to himself
If he walks with men: aha, I think he likes men, maybe he's gay?
If he walks with women: aha, bet he’s in love and soon he’ll leave the church or who knows ! ! !
If he is young: he has no experience, I will not listen to him! ! !
If he is old: He should retire or move to a senior's home already!
But… if he goes away or dies: Oh he is really irreplaceable!We'll never be able to forget him!!! He was the best we had!!

God Bless You Father! There is nothing to criticize here. You are a hardworking, harder than your Protestant peers, loving priest as are all of the priests that I've known so far. God Bless You All...
Father, today is the first day I have visited yor blog... & I love it!!! Your parish is indeed blessed. I am a Catholic in India and live in the state of Goa. My name is Wendy. I am a working mother of 2 children and also in the Renewal... We need Holy priests like you in this world... Pray for us all in India. I especially request your prayers for my Mother Suzana D'Cunha who has been admitted in hospital this morning. She is to be operated on tomorrow. She has been diagnosed with Colon Cancer (the doctors say it appears to have been diagnosed early) - We need the strength of the Lord!!!
