Our readers know that, from our very first days, Rorate has always been careful to identify original sources, when available, and also those who have have directed us to them, when applicable, from other websites to readers who wish to remain anonymous. It is a simple matter of common courtesy, a basis of civilized behavior, but also a matter of justice, which allows readers to make up their own informed opinion based on the original source.
Since we do not receive any income from this work, we at least expect, as a matter of justice, to receive the same treatment from others. So please, when we are the original source, or when we have directed you to a specific source, please be kind -- and just -- enough to identify us. The contrary discourteous, uncivilized and unjust (with all consequences of this word) behavior is getting tiresome.
On another note, after posting the original picture of Fr. Johnson saying at TLM for the Souls enrolled in the Rorate Caeli Purgatorial Society in Afghanistan, we were blessed with two new priests saying regular traditional Masses for the Souls of the Society -- a Jesuit and a Dominican!
Let this give us all hope for the future.
