>I raise these questions as a note of caution. Catholics are feeling scandalized. We're looking for answers and explanations. We also want solutions and reforms. I recommend all of us look down the road a distance before we allow our present passions to make the damage worse than it already is.

Right now, all three major religions are under attack. Just yesterday I did a thread, where I started:

But, as we try to figure out what's going on in the world, think of this bit of strangeness:
1) The Western Establishment is at war with "radical" Islam for fomenting terrorism...

2) The Western Establishment is at war with the Catholic Church for tacitly accepting pedophilia...

3) The Western Establishment is at war with Israel for oppressing those poor Arabs...
The Western Establishment has found reasons for being at war with the world's three biggest religions.

Imagine the context wasn't world events, but the business world. Imagine first ABC found itself under financial attack. Then CBS found itself under financial attack. Then NBC found itself under financial attack. Would anyone assume it was "random events" hitting three similar targets at once? Wouldn't everyone be looking for some power bloc which would stand to benefit from the battle?

Hasn't the destruction of religion been an agenda item for one or two (in)famous global movements?!

I think now would be a good time to question all our passions, and try to see if there is a "bigger picture" around each of these individual "wars."

Someone posted recently on one of the threads here that Hillary Clinton did her senior paper in college on Antonio Gramsci and that info certainly is an aftershock from the last decade.

Is it possible that back in the 30's when the higher education system was invaded by those with socialist views that another institution was systematically invaded in such a quiet manner as to elude the recognition of the hierarchy of that day? Unfortunately hindsight can be more in focus than the present or the future.
