All this chaos is, sadly, not too surprising when you consider that Alinsky was the kind of guy who would dedicate his most famous book to the king of chaos. Alinsky's organizing manual, Rules for Radicals, is dedicated to none other than Lucifer -- yes, the devil himself! -- whom Alinsky admiringly described as "the first radical known to man, who rebelled against the establishment and did it so effectively that he at least won his own kingdom."

My parish does not take up any CCHD collection and the CCHD propaganda is nowhere to be found here.

In answer to the question posed by the article title:

The chief reason I can conclude is that most Catholics assume that no matter how corrupt the wolves are that pretend to be shepherds and no matter how lax the leadership is in rooting out and removing these malefactors God will never cast off the Catholic church nor will Christ in judgment say, ‘I never knew you’.

Further Catholics might reason that the misdeeds a few do not undo the good deeds of the many. But is such a reasoning reflective of the thinking of Christ? How can one know if it is or not?

With a new scandal of German bishops knowingly being part of the porno industry a sincere and faithful Catholic might well ask whether claims made by the bishops of being Christ's brothers ring false.

Great post and thread. Thanks.

DEFUND socialist collectives, foreign and domestic.

The Law

We hold from God the gift which includes all others. This gift is life — physical, intellectual, and moral life.

But life cannot maintain itself alone. The Creator of life has entrusted us with the responsibility of preserving, developing, and perfecting it. In order that we may accomplish this, He has provided us with a collection of marvelous faculties. And He has put us in the midst of a variety of natural resources. By the application of our faculties to these natural resources we convert them into products, and use them. This process is necessary in order that life may run its appointed course.

Life, faculties, production — in other words, individuality, liberty, property — this is man. And in spite of the cunning of artful political leaders, these three gifts from God precede all human legislation, and are superior to it. Life, liberty, and property do not exist because men have made laws. On the contrary, it was the fact that life, liberty, and property existed beforehand that caused men to make laws in the first place.

Legal Plunder Has Many Names...(excerpt)

Above all, if you wish to be strong, begin by rooting out every particle of socialism that may have crept into your legislation. This will be no light task.

Frederic Bastiat 1801-1850

Much more...(here)...

Because they love power. Apostate Catholics are some of the most dangerous people on earth.

I solved the problem of 'iffy' charities by giving ONLY to CATHOLIC charities.

The second collection is ALWAYS explained and the other miscellaneous ones are explained by the visiting priest/nun who hits us up for his or her own mission.

The on-line and mail charities can be VERY easily checked out. I call'em up on the phone.

Hard for anyone to lose with my method.
