This article speaks of how priests should love study, reading, Bible etc

It used to be the case that priests would often talk about what they're reading, the latest book or article

But  these days, if a priest in a group of priests tries to mention something he's reading, the reaction is often dead silence.....code for:
no longer a discussion topic

On the other hand, mention a topic like discount air fares or special meals or the latest movie or Facebook ....and watch the conversation flow

Jesus, please help all priests keep alive the flame of love for serious reading and study
