The Blog is Dead! Long Live the Blog!

Yep, it's been an interesting time here, as a Redneck Catholic, but it's time I move on into a more thoughtful blog, based more on Church Teachings, Devotions and personal reflections. So I have made my last post on this blog.

BUT YOU CAN FIND MY NEW BLOG AT:

http://sadcatholic.blogspot.com

This has been a rather reluctant decision on my part, because I liked having a place to vent my opinions on church politics, and secular politics, current events and current culture. but I have realized that what I really need to be doing is getting my spiritual life in order, and moving forward in my christian life.

I hope to do a better job in my new blog of communicating what a privilege it is to be Catholic, how fraught with peril is the modern life to those who set there sights on heaven, and to perhaps, deepen my relationship with Christ as I learn, really learn, to pray.

I don't know yet what all I will be writing about, or what directions I will take. Right now I'm interested in Scripture and Patristics, and the Magisterial teachings of the Church. Not to mention liturgical matters. I've also started to discern whether or not the OCDS is something the Lord is calling me to. So I think that the new blog will have different subject matter and direction than this one.

It probably won't have a much different tone--I remain a curmudgeon, and a grouchy one at that!

Oh--Don't worry if you are not on the links, etc of the new place--it ain't done yet! but it's readable.

I'm gonna miss this blog. I'll keep up the fight on mine.

I'll be happy to follow you over to your new blog. Like you, I need to focus on my own spiritual life and stop reading things that make me upset. If only there weren't so many things to get my ire up!

I've had a sense of you being off your feed. Maybe this is it. I'll be linking to your new blog, I'm sure it'll be just as informative/interesting as this one was.

Hey, no fair. As soon as I get my blog all kinds of revamped. Mostly with more interesting content and a splash of personality. You go and end this one. It's still on my blogs to watch link. What, oh what will the mass public do when they click the link thinking "this seems interesting" only to find the mighty blog that my Omega blog is linked to is now ended. What will they think? Will they still trust me? The short reign of the mechanical pirate monkey(ME) may come to an end! Nations will fall to an uprising of belligerent Hobbits riding rottweilers wielding M44 Mosin Nagants!

But seriously good luck.
Sincerely, your long time friend the mechanical pirate monkey.
