The highly acclaimed movie "Doubt" was screened this Friday.
Summary:
.
.
In 1964 a Catholic elementary school has just admitted its first Black student, a 12-year-old boy transferred from public school. The principal, a rigid disciplinarian nun, and the liberal parish priest are both concerned for the boy's welfare in a predominantly Irish/Italian school. The nun becomes convinced that the priest has, or is planning to have, an improper relationship with the child and is determined to force him to leave the school. A third compassionate person is the boy's mother, who has another point of view. The fourth person is a young teacher who is concerned but confused by the conflict between the nun and the priest.

I particularly like these two sermons by Father Flynn.

So if you are in 'doubt' or 'uncertainty' now, do not despair.
And, do not gossip, for you cannot collect the feathers carried by the winds of gossip back.
.
And this is the doubt and gossip...
