Good sense is there still and prevail it will certainly...

Yes, at last good sense prevailed, though through the mediation of Rome!

Fr. Labrin was a lone fighter against the unjust, unholy activities of those who have to be its custodians! Unfortunately the church in the garb of 'mighty' epicopacy tried to silence him in vain, instead of encouraging him! When that could not succeed it took recourse to punitive measures ending up in his suspension!

And now, Rome seemed to have advised the authority in the diocese to try dialogue and conciliation after rescinding the suspension. That was how his suspension is known to have been lifted. May this be a lesson to all concerned not to put down genuine demands for justice, accountability, transparency and the like and never ever try to go the punitive way which never was Jesus' way.

Let Fr. Labrin and those like him be more generous to take everyone along and together try to overcome the powers of evil so as realize the Reign of God which is among us already. May good sense dawn and Love reign...
