>>> Marxism—divide and conquer technique. “ <<<
Actually I read it was a Palin fan technique against Bachman. I have no idea what is the truth on that. The author of the column did not post his opinion here, but is rather a devout Catholic deacon with his own blog. What you say is true and elegantly written. Although I prefer to separate the Church from the sinning Catholics who abused Her and brought on the wrath of the people. The Reformation was one thing. Schism was something entirely beyond. Luther himself said he had failed and created now many popes. His followers continued the dissent. But, of course I agree with your general point. I get it.
I agree with you. Absolutely. I love Catholic Theology, particularly the thinking of St. Thomas Aquinas. Nothing on earth is perfect...there is always that search for Truth and the abilities of Satan should never be underestimated—or his intelligence. I do like CS Lewis’s thinking, also, and admire the Pope’s thinking, except for a few minor details, but admit that he has to be political at some times.
So, the Catholic Church is like any other entity on earth. It is made up of humans and because of that there will be error. I just pray that the Catholic Church being so enormous can keep itself pointed in the right direction and not fall prey to the devil. I put nothing past him and have been proven wise many, many times. But I do not pretend that I know the Truth as far as the entities on earth exist...we live in very unsettling times...with much deceit. Faith helps, but when inconsistencies happen, one does have to wonder with this wonderful entity God has given us for a reason....the brain.
Well I’m glad to see you have moved on from obnoxious to just plain nasty.
Palin plot?
