SHJIHM :: Catholic Discussions :: Obama to Speak at Notre Dame Commencement ~ Runboard
"There are not over a hundred people in the United States who hate the Catholic Church. There are millions, however, who hate what they wrongly believe to be the Catholic Church, which is, of course, quite a different thing." -Bishop Fulton J. Sheen
Placating terrorists, meeting with dictators, compassion for murderers... but no humanity for the unborn... incredible.
OOT
Re: Obama to Speak at Notre Dame Commencement There are enough passages in this story to make my blood boil and spill out. Here is just one example.
quote:
Speaking on Trinity's campus in Northeast Washington, McGuire said that "a half-century of progress for Catholic higher education is at risk of slipping back into those insular, parochial pre-Vatican II days" when academic freedom was not valued within the Catholic Church.
Apparently the world has more to teach the Church then the Church has to teach the world and the so-called Catholic universities have resolved to be the conduit for that teaching.
Re: Obama to Speak at Notre Dame Commencement It's times like this where I wish the Pope wold REMIND Catholics that we are all subject to him.
I read what that Mcguire person wrote. She so far missed the point of sacred teaching it was embarrassing.
quote:
They have established themselves as uber-guardians of a belief system we can hardly recognize.
Which belief system is she referring to? If anything, it is BECAUSE of the cafeteria Catholics like this Mcguire that the sacred deposit of faith is unrecognizable. It is because of Cathiolics like this who warp sacred teaching to their own agenda's that leave the young Catholics scratching their heads.
quote:
They defend the rights of the unborn but have no charity toward the living.
To whom is she speaking? I have great charity for the President. That does not mean I will accept the President, an anti-life man, speaking at a Catholic institution. My charity does not supersede my faith. As a Catholic, I am called to show mercy, not circumvent my faith.
Bottom line is is that these 'Catholic' institutions have ceased being Catholic long ago.

Re: Obama to Speak at Notre Dame Commencement Are even religious people in America anti-life ?
"New Surprising Results on Abortion and Religiosity"
"Unwed pregnant teens and 20-somethings who attend or have graduated from private religious schools are more likely to obtain abortions than their peers from public schools, according to research in the June issue of the Journal of Health and Social Behavior. "
"On the other hand, simply attending church or finding religion important does not appear to shape a young unmarried woman's abortion decisions," Adamczyk said. "But many very liberal-minded people who seem themselves as prochoice still attend church."
I think I mentioned something earlier about the hook-up culture that young people have created.
