“Bill, I’m sure you’d be a good lawyer, but the world is full of good lawyers. What the world needs is a good useful priest.”

Once my son William asked me if being a priest was a 'good' job. I answered that if you were fit for the job, if you were cut out for it, it was one of the best you could ask for but that you had to be sure you wanted to do it before .. America has a lot of lawyers..... and a lot of rotten priests..... hmmmmm

I guess I don't check Comments often enough! I'm just reading this for the first time tonight. First of all, he has a fine name. Second, what did he decide to do with his life (thus far)? Finally, I hope you haven't run afoul of one of those rotten priests!
