Thanks for your email.
If you have not been to a Catholic Worker House, I encourage you to visit.
By and large, they are rich in good people doing good work. Funky, down home, no-nonsense, kick-ass work.

Although there is no accounting for taste, I venture you'll find kindred spirits there.
I am always struck by their bravery.
I see the original apostles much more like Catholic workers than a randomly chosen group of 12 cardinals.(Or a randomly chosen group of 12 popes for that matter.)
