Lying Jesuits and Journalists (When a cultural controversy pops up, raging bias is sure to follow)

. . . priests appear on television in proportion to their willingness to upend Catholic teachings . . .

The real scandal is that these people have been allowed to use their "ordained-and-still-in-good-standing" status to spread lies. It's even worse than the claim of the death-loving politicians that they are "practicting Catholics" because they show up for communion photo-ops at election time.

Neumayr's observations are dead-on and hit like a train. I love this guy, too.

Drinan was apparently Tim Russert's idea of a sturdy Catholic authority on this matter.

Yeah, so much for the media's Mr. Integrity. He's not like the others. Riiiiight.

The reliance on euphemism was almost nonstop.

To put it kindly, liberals are confused in their thinking. Yet their propaganda campaign is so ingenious and effective, that it can only be diabolically inspired.

By the time he graduated he announced to the family he was now an agnostic

This happens in most "Catholic" colleges.

There are precious few truly Catholic colleges.

"Father" Drinan should have been defrocked and excommunicated a long time ago. The press is expert at using self-hating Catholics as spokespeople for the Church. It's like using a Holocaust-denying rabbis to speak on behalf of the Jewish community.

I went through 8 years of modern Jesuit education. Besides myself and one other person I know of, practically all of my classmates became secular humanists or at best, cafeteria Catholics. The Jesuits of today are, for the most part, pale reflections of what they used to be. In some cases, they are outright evil. No doubt, their predecessors are not smiling in Heaven:

Thanks. Drinan also surfaced recently at a panel discussion involving a project of Leon Panetta's:

"The media's instinctual use of "authorities" who are frauds -- the Drinans who clog their rolodexes (priests appear on television in proportion to their willingness to upend Catholic teachings) "
Don't blame the media. Blame the line: Cardinal Cushing and the Pope that put him in place, and santions his actions.

After reading this:

I think in most cases they are outright evil.

St. Ignatius pray for us.
