Of course. YEC and Biblical literalism have no relation whatsoever to Catholic "orthodoxy." Which is why the MSM preferred the Catholics to Fundamentalist Protestants for so long.
Remember the Jim Bakker and Jimmy Swaggart scandals? Catholics were laughing up their sleeves at such a clownish religion and patting themselves on the back for being so "respectable."
You know what they say about payback.
No they didn't. They liked "Kennedy" Catholics, "McCarrick" Catholics, "O'Brien" Catholics, "Küng" Catholics and so on. In fact, they still do. I don't seem to recall them ever liking the Chaput kind of Catholic, the Tilton kind of Catholic, the Donahue (Bill, not Phil) kind of Catholic, etc. And I certainly remember all of the hand wringing once they figured out that JPII was not a Communist, despite having come from Communist Poland...and I absolutely remember them screaming about Ratzinger, both before and after he was elected.

Yes I do. I remember both of them quite vividly. And let's not forget about Robert Tilton in that mix, as well.

Yeah I do. Although I do not believe in Karma.
But having said that, I do believe that this is God's purgation being given to His Church now due to the lack of fidelity of Her members.
Plenty of examples in the OT to show how He did so for Israel. Plenty of warnings in the NT about what would happen if we grow lax. Fortunately, God is more faithful than we are.
