Review: "Tea Party Catholic" - Part II | National Catholic Reporter

Review: "Tea Party Catholic" - Part II | National Catholic Reporter by MSW.  MGB: MSW is correct that Gregg is writing for internal conumption and probably for funding for Acton (Lord Action, by the way, is spinning in his grave).  Liberal Catholicism is in no way dying.  One of ours is now the Pope.  While I can see how Gregg objects to its main feature - Catholics thinking for themselves - as bad for the Church and Church attendance - the reason is because the Trads have a deaf ear to demands for change.  As far as Capitalism being a founding virtue - it was not.  Indeed, in early America people who dealt in finance rather than in honest work were met with suspicion.
