Looking around your parish do you have homilies that could have been copied out of Ms. Magazine? Are your chances of hearing the words Father, Son, and Holy Spirit less than that of being hit directly by a metorite? Have architects transformed your church so much that you now are tempted to genuflect when you enter a gymnasium? Could your parish Religious Educator have possibly been burned at the stake as a heritic in a previous century? Are you more likely to have a leotard Sunday instead of Laetare Sunday? If you answered in the affirmative to any of these questions then who are you going to call?<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Yes Spirtbusters! Here are Cardinals Ratzinger and Arinze battling something much more fierce than Gozar or the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man, yes it is a sound system broadcasting syrupy and theologically confused dreck from the Gather hymnal. Don’t worry, they did survive the encounter using special Cannon Law Cannons they deposessed the sound system and contained the Spirit of Vatican II within a special containment system guaranteed to withstand modernism and constant dialoging. So faster than Cardinal Ratzinger can say “proportionate reasons” or Cardinal Arinze can deny a Rainbow Sash wearer from receiving Holy Communion the Spirit of Vatican II can be demolished.<\/p>\n

Cue Ray Parker Jr and theme<\/a>..<\/p>\n

Spiritbusters…
\nIf there’s somethin’ strange in your parish church
\nWho ya gonna call (spiritbusters)
\nIf the lyrics are wierd and it don’t sound good
\nWho ya gonna call (spiritbusters)<\/p>\n

I ain’t afraid a no post-modernist
\nI ain’t afraid a no post-modernist
\nIn the homily you can’t believe what was said
\nWho can you call (spiritbusters)
\nWhere sound theology surely has fled<\/p>\n

Oh who ya gonna call (spiritbusters)
\nI ain’t afraid a no post-modernist
\nI ain’t afraid a no post-modernist
\nWho ya gonna call (spiritbusters)
\nContact the Vatican or pick up the phone
\nAn call (spiritbusters)<\/p>\n

I ain’t afraid a no post-modernist
\nI hear it likes labyrinths
\nI ain’t afraid a no post-modernist
\nWho you gonna call (spiritbusters)
\nMm…if you’ve had a dose
\nOf inclusive degendered language
\nYou better call spiritbusters
\nOrthodoxy makes me feel good
\nI ain’t afraid a no post-modernist<\/p>\n

Don’t get caught alone oh no…spiritbuster
\nWhen he comes through your door
\nShoutin’ he want to dialog some more
\nI think you better call spiritbusters
\nOoh… who you gonna call (spiritbusters)
\nWho you gonna call (spiritbusters)
\nAh, I think you better call (spiritbusters)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
