New mysteries of the Holy Rosary and old "mysteries" by some priests
In the Apostolic Letter Rosarium Virginis Mariae (Latin for The Rosary of the Virgin Mary), the Pope declared new mysteries of the Holy Rosary: (1) The baptism of Jesus in the River Jordan. (2) His self-manifestation and miracles at the wedding at Cana. (3) His proclamation of the Kingdom of God, with his call to conversion. (4) His transfiguration. And (5) His institution of the Eucharist at the Last Supper. Church leaders said last week that Pope John Paul II's move to add new mysteries of the rosary was very timely because "the worldwide gloom cast by the long shadow of terrorist bombings called for an explosion of light". (INQ7.net 2 November 2002). Puhhhleeese. Maybe you mean to distract the gullible majority from the reported sexual abuses of priests? Giving them more mysteries may cloud the sex-related "mysteries" in our midst.
