Let the Ordinariate Games Begin

Today sees the establishment of the Ordinariate in Australia.  For those of you with little or no interest or knowledge, the short explanation is that it's a way for the Roman Catholic Church to receive Anglicans who have long believed in the primacy of the Pope but have had scruples about caving in and converting on their own.  There are other aspects of the matter, of course, but I try not to pollute these pages with church politics.

For those who are making the jump I hope they find a place where they can finally do the things they've spent so long being diverted from.  For those of us happily staying put, here's a little thought for the day.
