Such ignorance

Among the more idioitic things of which we are informed:

Converts are usually welcomed into the Church at the Easter Vigil Mass, held the night before Easter Sunday, but these arrangements are considered flexible.
Admittance to the Church is normally a two-year process. But Mr Blair, because he is already a regular attender, is likely to be fast- tracked.

Huh?
And:
As a deacon, he could help priests administer Mass, preside over baptisms and read the gospel in Church services. Unlike priests, deacons are not required to take a vow of chastity.

You'd think a journalist, or indeed anyone who works with words for a living would make an effort to know the meaning of the words he uses (and misuses...)

Of course "chastity" is one of the most misudeerstood words in modern English, why would the writer know it was not synonomous with "celibacy"?

ALL Catholics "take a vow of chastity. "

All decent people of any religionor even no religion at all should.
