‘(3) polluting the environment’ = the catholic church’s adoption of the bogus world-government-inspired ‘man-made-global-warming crusade, led by european and american marxists
‘(4) social injustice’ = a term with as many definitions as there are political causes and agendas, demonstrating a massive degree of moral relativism unbecoming any professed spiritual-based organization
‘(5) causing poverty’ = the catholic church’s attack on free enterprise and capitalism, which, unlike socialism - the catholic church’s preferred politics - do not profess to be complete and utopian solutions for ALL problems, just purely economic ones, leaving it to moral free people and their free associations, not big government, to fulfill any moral mandates to society that free people in free markets leave undone
while professing chagrin at the ‘secular’ world, the catholic church now seeks to purchase the blessings of that world by openly adopting its secular political agendas, and calling disagreement with those agendas a ‘sin’
martin luther may or may not have been wrong in ‘why’ he took the route he did, but the route itself, out of a false orthodoxy was right
In the interests of opposition research I just submitted myself to the part of NPR's "All Things Considered" which dealt as superficially as possible with this, this, whatever it is. It was clear that they intended to make the news as incomp0rehensible as possible to further the notion of the Catholic Church as quaint, bizarre, and barbaric.
