Links for 07/24/15 | National Catholic Reporter

Links for 07/24/15 | National Catholic Reporter by MSW. MGB: Rest in piece to the Cardinal Emeritus who did more for ecumenicism than his successor in two roles, Cardinal Burke, tried to undo.  Hopefully the next Archbishop of Kansas-City will be in his mold, not Burke and his successor who I will not name.



Fr. Z commenting on poll results that he helped influence by talking trash to Trads on Francis may think he can gloat - but Francis is not studying up on American Catholics to make it easy for his benefactors.



Dreher has captured what I thought would be on a liberal site. It is more about Austrian sensibilities than American.  That the culturally conservative commentator thought that avarice was more important than lust makes sense, although there is consumption for the workers to have a better life (and be less likely to radicalize) and the conspicuous consumption of the rich, which is so insidious that those who consume this way do not know that they are sliding into sin - that they deserve what they are getting by what they do in society.  That extra time vacation is not so bad, after all.  Truth be told, it is not as long as everyone gets at least a week through their employer - but doing that will really mess up the American (Austrian) Creed.
