Missed that bit of strangeness on the first read. Still, there are a lot of good points for the pope.

...that phrase marked the writer as a wingnut...I read the rest of it with that in mind...

Certainly. However, that said, it remains, while all of her commentary reflects her personal views, much of it - not all - parallels the concerns, in my opinion, of what I suspect to be a good many faithful Catholics.

It does not follow that if someone is a wingnut or holds some prejudice with regard to a particular position, that all of what they say is wrong with regard to some other area of knowledge. There might be a little wingnut in everyone; 'so let he who is without wingnutism, cast the first stone.'

...well said...and having been said, I just defend my utterance by stating my aversion to the term ‘Zionist’, as it conjures a phony bogeyman that Hitler’s crowd would have understand all too well...

‘so let he who is without wingnutism, cast the first stone.

...as Holy Writ continues to be translated with increased laxity of refined expression, I’m sure that line has a chance to make it in there...
