Neumayr turns vague accusations into confirmed facts with hackneyed yellow journalism techniques. He turns facts into lurid, mass-appeal fantasy stories. He seems to pride himself on logical fallacies. He decides what he wants to say, then targets people and places to create or coerce bits he then knits into far out pet theories that resonate with readers prone to hysteria over reason.

N went to a jam-packed, big-event mass with the dear hope of provoking getting tossed out. Now, that’s OK, low class, but a legitimate journo trick. N is in the right in this regard! I would defend to the arch himself N’s right to attend mass and be in a parish church of any size. But wasn’t it clever of N to get some revenge? Now he looks like a personal victim of the corrupt hierarchy — and in fact he is!

It’s always good to play devil’s advocate when reading articles, especially ones that draw all the conclusions for you. This is helpful for anyone including Catholics. I did not intend to insult fellow Catholics, most of them would see thru these manipulations and not give N the time of day.

I’m not interested in your detractions. Never have been.

You seem more interested in attacking the authors of the articles posted rather then addressing the content of the articles.

What are you complaints against Catholic Family News and the Remnant? They’re too Catholic for you?
