Sea Isle City - There is an emotional reaction to the old church demolition arguments that give the priest the divine right to decide its future and the praying of the rosary as the facility's novena to avoid the wrecking ball. The pastor is an agent of the bishop, the lawful owner of the old church and its property. All other dancing including the decision of lay parish members and Spout Off whining about its use is palaver. The rosary, well, is a comforting chanting almost like the moaning of Buddhist monks - not considered even by the church as a part of its liturgy. It won't change the ending.

Moderator's Note: 
Palaver is defined as an unnecessarily elaborate or complex procedure.
