Off the Cuff and Under the Collar by Bishop John McCarthy

Bishop McCarthy has written an honest, sensitive and caring set of essays about his opinions of the Catholic church and the reforms that he thinks are needed.  Some of his views are certainly very modern and many Catholics won't like them, for example, his views about homosexuality seem to be at odds with the Church.

I especially liked his views about marriage, although I didn't agree with his opinion of whirlwind romances.  Many have worked out, after all!

He takes a gentle, humorous tone to many topics which made the book light and pleasant to read, although I didn't agree with several of his views.
