Your beliefs are leftist progressive.
“Your beliefs are leftist progressive.”
-Thanks for the label. I am a Catholic, but not a Gutierrez Catholic. I have seen my share of hypocrisy as I grew up in the Archdiocese of Boston. Don’t forget that the pedophile scandals really burst into public view there. But behind the scenes, the real scandal that some writers have written about was that his Emminence, Richard Cardinal Cushing was actually laundering money for old Joe Kennedy while all this was going on. For a hefty fee, the Cardinal washed the money and built churches and schools. Nice work if you can get it.
I also have a terminal degree in Divinity on the post-graduate level. The more I learn about the world I am in, the more I have learned to question it. I don’t know about leftist progressive but I like to look at all institutions with a jaundiced eye because I was raised on lies and hypocrisy. When you are raised that way, you develop a keen eye for those who are actually seeking the truth. None of us will get there but a few of us are honestly trying.
All institutions will out in the end for their particular brand of hypocrisy. I just want to help usher that along. Does that make me leftist progressive? I don’t know.
