He's not out of the mainstream among neo-Catholic thought.

I don't know, Max. This is some extremely weird stuff. Not even your friend, Sinkspur, has been willing to step forward to defend it. It is also noteworthy that Deal Hudson (isn't he one of the so-called neo-Catholic leaders?) is on the Board of Catholic Citizens, the organization that reprinted this very enlightening article.

You act as though those 2 statements are contradictory.

Some very interesting things on the Catholic Citizen homepage, including a quote from Father Greeley. Is he referring to the Father Kunz(sp?) case?

Also, note that Catholic Citizens will be honoring George Weigel. I don't think folks can be catagorized as neatly as the trad/neo divide that exists on this forum.

"I think that we are heading into a period in which the Catholic understanding of the inalienable dignity and value of every human life is going to be profoundly challenged. It was challenged in the 20th century by political systems. It will be challenged in the 21st century by the biotechnology revolution. This struggle will be even more difficult because, whereas with Nazism and communism one was confronted with unmitigated evils, the biotech revolution is a complex mixture of good and potential evil or catastrophe." George Weigel, author, lecturer, syndicated columnist

I'm not comfortable with touchy-feely. I also think it's rather weird to be talking to teen-agers about NFP, and charts and temperature readings.

I notice, though, that this critical article never references Vatican II, or any Pope after Vatican II.

So, I'd reserve judgment on Popcack until I actually heard him, since this website has an agenda.
