...that every time I hear the prayer for vocations read aloud during the Prayer of the Faithful, I think, "Good luck with that." I don't know how it is in Australia, but here in the States, with study, screening, and of course discernment, few men get to ordination, and I'm under the impression that the crop of younger priests skews conservative, very conservative. But that's a totally unscientific assessment.
