Catholic FReepers absolutely refuse to consider that the Catholic Church's love affair with higher criticism and evolution just might be a bad thing. They trumpet the Catholic Church as the "bulwark" of unchanging, absolute truth while ignoring or defending the radical anti-Biblical attitudes the Church adopted within the past 120 years or so. Then they wonder how the Church could have gotten so far off track since VII.
These people who dream of a restored "orthodox" Catholic Church that still believes in higher criticism are doomed to disappointment. Anti-Biblicism is the source of all the Catholic Church's current problems. Unless and until the Church gets rid of its Bibliophobia (caused by a sociological prejudice against American "trailer trash") then the Church will continue to go down hill. And Catholic FReepers will go right on wearing their rose colored glasses.
At heart,many worship the institution, not God.
