It was predictable, but is nevertheless regrettable, that many pundits and partisans would respond to Caritas in Veritate not so much by engaging Pope Benedict’s profoundly Christian humanism but instead by hunting through the text for quotations they could deploy in support of their own pet policies.

The problem for me, is I don’t follow every edict or writing emanating from the Pope. The Pope is not someone I am in full support of because of my religions affiliation, but I do try to be respectful, and I believe I made some fairly reasoned comments concerning that in my post.

I have to address policy, and so I do. If there is another side to it, I encourage folks to make that known to me and others.

Despite some criticism of policy on my part, I believe the Pope got a full airing here, and I support that.

But I have 380 contiguous words of his that prove that “insight” wrong. Those together are more frightening than any quote.
