Whatever your noble intentions may be, Mr. Donohue, it’s time for you to slip away and, frankly, shut up.  Please. 

You are doing more harm than good, and making our church look idiotic. If you truly love our faith and want to defend it, go off and say a rosary.

But please: stop this. People, faithful Catholics, have written to me, upset that performances like the one above are now considered representative of our Church. So, consider this a public intervention.  This has to stop.  Please.  You’re embarrassing us all.

Happy Easter.
