The revelation of the existence of this Filial Correction is nothing short of stunning, and should by all rights shake to the core the confidence of the faithful in the wisdom and judgment of this Pope when he is not acting with the grace of Papal Infallibility.

The actions of this Pope are completely unsurprising in light of his Leftism, and the typical disregard that Leftists have for tradition, the rule of law, or the norms of social structure. As committed Leftists in this country are concerned only with ends, ignoring the propriety of their means, this Pope has adopted as his own the goals of those who flout Church teachings on adultery and the sacraments of marriage and the Eucharist, and is ignoring the impassioned entreaties of all who would remind him of the one righteous path.

Many who know that I am an atheist might well be puzzled by my defense of the traditions of the Catholic Church. Truly, the history of the Church is mixed, and as human beings are fallible, many of those who have led the Church over the centuries have faltered in their calling. But in the end, the Church is a great and good entity, and to watch it being torn asunder by the same forces that are eating away at the foundations of Constitutional predominance in the United States is both alarming and distressing.

At this critical moment in history, as it is compelling to those of us in America who hold the Constitution dear to our hearts, it is every bit as imperative for all men and women of strong faith and traditional values within the Church to be unafraid of consequence and seize every opportunity to do the hard work of defending what they know to be good and true. These scholars are doing just that, and they should be recognized and admired for their courage.

Very well stated and right on. Thank you very much.

We need more clear, critical thinkers like you who are Christians or profess to be, anyway.
