R. McBrien Attacks Dogma (Again)

O'Reilly Factor | 3/28/05 | Self

[ninenot]

(Fr.) Richard McBrien, notorious heretic, wore his Roman collar tonight while on O'Reilly's show denying the Roman Catholic doctrines regarding feeding tubes and euthanasia in the Schiavo case.

Notre Dame's reputation takes one more step into the barnyard filth.

This jerk McBrien only wears his Roman collar to ATTACK the Church--on national TV.

Otherwise, he's afraid to be a priest.

Is there a name for this perversion?

[HowlinglyMind-BendingAbsurdity]

McBrien is a major fruitcake. And part of the theological lobotomy of post-Vatican II neo-modernism. It's a disgrace that his bishop has not stripped him of his faculties and that Notre Dame has never fired him.

He's a typical example of the liberal, flaky, disgruntled, pudgy, sexually neurotic, discontented, angry neo-modernists still stuck in the low self-esteem syndrome of immigrant Catholicism - constantly whining and feeling bad about themselves because they are Catholic (as if there were any reason to be ashamed of the true faith). Pathetic. Notre Dame deserves better. MUCH better.

McBrien is a classic example of liberal social engineering gone wrong.

[HowlinglyMind-BendingAbsurdity]

The media is irresponsible in presenting to the public the McBrien types as "Catholic" experts. McBrien is no longer Catholic. He left the orthodox faith a long time ago. He's a public heretic. They might as well have presented Barbara Streisand, Shirley MacLaine, or Dr. Kevorkian as "Catholic" theologians.

[narses]

They do.

[whatexit]

I was in utter amazement at his claim that this was not a case of euthanasia because the feeding tube "wasn't removed with the intent of killing her."

Um, HUH?

[HowlinglyMind-BendingAbsurdity]

I was in utter amazement at his claim that this was not a case of euthanasia because the feeding tube "wasn't removed with the intent of killing her."

That's a ridiculously absurd casuitical argument. Sophistry. McBrien doesn't even KNOW the "intent" of this wacko husband about whom others have reported hearing him express wishes that his wife were dead.

Notre Dame should coercively impose "retirement" on McBrien on the grounds that he is no longer of sound mind. Priests not being in possession of their full mental faculties being a liability hazard around young people. Maybe locking him in a room for a week or two without food or water might wake him up to the moral truths of the Catholic faith.

Did a walk around on the Notre Dame campus a while back early in the morning, thinking about sending one of mine there for an education, and saw a pretty fellow parking a new Audi and going into the priest only apartment building. He walked by me, and I smelled the unmistakable odor of recent sodomy. Smells just like you would expect. Perhaps we have a "rainbow" takeover at Notre Dame.

Anyway, my child does not attend Notre Dame. Pretty place though, very nice buildings well kept.

[franky]

I believe Notre Dame has eliminated the word religion from their promotion of the Universty. They are now an official secular school.

[Coleus]

And this Jesuit Heretic was on Meet the Press on Easter Sunday, he was a congressman for 10 years who supported abortion.

I couldn't believe my eyes and ears when I hear O'Reilly say Father O'Brien so I got up and went over to look at my tiny TV to see the name.

I feel like send O'Reilly a note and letting him know that this priest is really no Catholic that would stand up under the scrutiny of the Pope.

What nonsense he spouted also!

[ninenot]

That occurred in 1967 at Land 'o' Lakes. Several formerly Catholic Jebby universities were party to the same agreement, including Marquette, St Louis U., and Loyola/Chicago.

Who needs the Church when you can get Federal money?

R. McBrien Attacks Dogma (Again)

Oh, dear God, not R. McBrien! Anything but R. McBrien! What have we done to call down Your wrath thus?

(As perhaps is evident, I have no idea who R. McBrien is.)

My father and mother drove through the place one time, with me and my sister in the car--back in the mid-'50's.

My dad didn't have much use for the place then, and REALLY started spitting nails about it in the mid-1960's.

It's a good 'meet'n'greet' joint for obtaining a job, though, after graduation.

[Conservative til I die]

I feel like send O'Reilly a note and letting him know that this priest is really no Catholic that would stand up under the scrutiny of the Pope.

That's OK, cuz O'Reilly's a phony-ass Catholic himself.

See the article "Irreverently Yours: A Message from Generation X" in U.S. Catholic magazine April 1999.

Paul Collins, ex-priest	Author of the books "Papal Power" and "Mixed Blessings," who was under investigation by the Vatican claims since 1998, claims that a "true and binding revelation [to obey the Church teachings] does not exist," denies that the Church of Christ is identified with the catholic Church, and hold an erroneous view of papal infallibility, among other things.
Sr. Carol Coston, OP	Carol Coston was NETWORK's executive director during its first 11 years and later remained on its board of directors. In a 1984 autobiographical essay, Coston said her feminist perspective, developed during the 1960s and 1970s, enabled her to see "domination" on all sides and gave her freedom to "try to transform" it, as well as to choose her own work, companions and "life-style", and to discover "feminist spirituality." She discussed her spirituality in a 1980 speech published by NETWORK and included in Tuite's NARW-CWU "conscientization" kit. It draws heavily on the thought of Sr. Madonna Kolbenschlag and recommends the "positive images" to be found in the goddess traditions of Ishtar and Isis.

Matthew Fox	Author of the book "Creation Spirituality" and the founder of a movement with the same name, he was investigated by the Vatican and subsequently dismissed from the Dominican Order in 1993. Creation Spirituality has 10 Principles which replace the 10 Commandments, among which are claims of "Divinity is as much Mother as Father" and "That we experience that the Divine is in all things and all things are in the Divine (Panentheism)." Panentheism is an old heresy which has been resurrected in New Age thought. He has "Techno-Cosmic Masses" which "integrates live music, electronica, multi-media imagery and eastern and indigenous spiritual elements to create a multi-cultural, intergenerational and ecumenical form of worship." The real Catholic Mass makes Jesus Christ present in His Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity. Fox claims that Christianity has been spiritually destitute ever since St. Augustine came up with the doctrine of original sin. (Friends of Creation Spirituality is also part of Call to Action's Catholic Organizations for Renewal).
Bishop Samuel Ruiz Garcia	Liberation Theology.
David Gentry-Akin	Pro-feminist men.
Fr. Roger Haight	The author of the book "Jesus: Symbol of God" promotes pluralism, similar to that of Fr. Jacques Dupuis (above). He was prevented from continuing to teach and is presently under investigation by the Vatican. Any real Catholic knows that Jesus *is* God, and not just a symbol. He also presents at Call to Action conferences. In 2002, he promoted feminist theology, pick whatever religion suits your conscience (indifferentism) and that "Catholics need a new theology" rather than Dominus Iesus, decried the "sexist" Church because women are not leaders (priests), and chided the Church for clericalism because the laity cannot perform priestly duties.
Diana Hayes	Author of the book "And We Still Rise: an Introduction to Black Liberation Theology."
Sr. Jose Hobday	As disciple of Matthew Fox and his creation spirituality, she has been quoted as saying that Catholic teachers "should forget about any church doctrine prior to twenty years ago…cut the spiritual and emotional umbilical cord to the Church and start in a new direction."
Mary Hunt	WomenChurch, Feminist theology.
Sr. Karol Jackowski	As the author of "Sister Karol's Book of Spells and Blessings," Jackowski is into new age, pagan and occult spirituality. Her books says simply: "Find your own favorite prayers, your mantra ... Whatever God or divine power you call upon, whatever moves you make, whatever words you speak, whatever spell or blessing you choose, all of that now becomes charged with the magic in ritual.."
Bishop Franz Kamphaus	Supports dissent via a false freedom of conscience: "Conscience can oblige the individual to acts that are in contradiction of Church teachings .... It is the responsibility of the individual alone."
Hans Küng	Former theologian condemned by the Vatican.
Fr. Richard McBrien	Says, among other things, that Jesus did not establish the Catholic Church, and calls into question the virginal conception of Jesus and the perpetual virginity of Our Lady, and promotes dissent.
Sr. Mary John Mananzan	Feminist theology, supporter of Call to Action.
Michael Morwood, ex-priest	Author of the books "Tomorrow's Catholic" and "Is Jesus God?" has had the former book banned by Archbishop Pell in Australia. He denies the teachings on the Divinity of Christ and the Most Blessed Trinity.

Fr. George Wertin	Pastor of St. Joan of Arc parish in Minneapolis, MN. In a homily on Sunday, January 12th, 2003  titled "A Baptism That Transforms,"  he denies the doctrine of Baptism" "People are still locked into the old sin/redemption theology that sees all human being as infected by a hereditary sin from Adam that keeps them from God." Baptism not needed to remove original sin or personal sin but rather the sin of the world. In a July 14, 2002 homily, he preached that "we need to let go of fall/redemption theology" and "How refreshing to embrace a creation-centered spirituality." He was written up favorably in the August 2003 ChurchWatch section of the Call to Action dissident group.
