Actually saw this magazine in my counsellor's office. Never heard of Sojourners. Apparently it has a circulation of 35,000 (is that large?). Funny thing is the article got me more interested in the Christian LEFT. Apparently the founder of Sojourners has fellow travelers in the Red Letter cult movement, like Tony Compollo. While they CLAIM to focus on Christ's actual words - it really is cover to talk less about abortion and homosexuality and turn Christianity into a social justice movement.

So he’s using his own money to express his religious and political views.

I believe that’s called the First Amendment.

Wow, sounds like a really good group. To be honest I have really had issues with Mass attendance since Pope Francis has been in, but I continue to be an avid supporter of the theology and devotional practices of the RCC.

I don’t think he complained about the St. Gallen mafia’s secret meetings, and planning to prevent the election of BXVI, and the future election of Cardinal Bergoglio.

In case you can't tell where Tom and his fellow Sojourners are coming from:

Tom writes for the Nat'l Catholic Reporter.

Didn't like Reagan's economic policies,

Supports USCCB liberal policies and excuses their support for contraception/abortion,

He conflates Tim Busch's and the K of C's use of money with Judas Iscariot's betrayal of Christ 'for 30 piece of silver'.

Object to funding, "which fought the contraception mandate of the Affordable Care Act, even though most Catholic institutions, including the Catholic Health Association, said they could live with accommodations carved out by the Obama administration." (How Catholic of them to "accommodate" abortion...)

Pretends homosexuality is natural, as though sexual abuse is not a contributing factor and then pretends counseling can't help)

Pretends AB Vigano's charges against the Vatican have been debunked.....

[irishjuggler]

amid multicourse meals followed by wine and cigar receptions, private cocktail parties for the especially privileged, traditional Catholic devotionals, Mass said in Latin for those so inclined, “patriotic rosary” sessions that include readings from George Washington and Robert E. Lee, and the occasional break for a round of golf.

The horror, the horror. Wine, food, golf, Latin? How dare they?

[aspasia]

Sojourners? Put those cigarettes away.

it really is cover to talk less about abortion and homosexuality and turn Christianity into a social justice movement.

I never heard of the Sojourners but when I read the article it was hard to believe the pure crap the author was pushing. Living in Southern California, I am well aware of Tim Busch and the Napa Institute.

As a Traditional Catholic, one sick and tired of the garbage coming out of the Vatican, and one who is active in my parish and a follower and supporter of Traditional Catholic organizations, we need more people of all income levels who are willing to stand up and defend our Catholic Faith.

For those living or visiting the Orange County, CA area, I recommend a visit to the Queen of Life Catholic Chapel located at the Busch Group offices at 2532 Dupont Drive in Irvine. Weekday Mass is celebrated in the Chapel as well as two Sunday Masses, both of which are Anglican Roman Rite Masses, a treat for us non-Anglican Catholics. Their website is queenoflifechapel.org.
