Dolan on the Elections | National Catholic Reporter

Dolan on the Elections | National Catholic Reporter by MSW. MGB: The Cardinal and the blogger misunderstand humanism.  It is not a selfish ideology, it is that morality resides in human nature, not divine nature, and that any other interpretation is based on hubris.  We are called to love ourselves and others and the fulfillment of that nature, but we cannot be God.  The attempts to be so have been as destructive as the selfishness the Cardinal decries.  Catholic Libertarianism is different than secular Libertarianism in this way.  It is time to rid the Church of the stoicism implied by the Cardinal's letter.
