Links for 08/06/15 | National Catholic Reporter by MSW. MGB: Paul VI did much for the Church and defended papal power well, which usually gets someone canonized - although John Paul the Great was a doubter at Vatican II and would probably not allow a canonization to go forth. More's the pity. Humanae Vitae will not be regarded 100 years ago as anything but bad biology, although that does not seem to matter - Pius X and his band of informers would never be canonized today. Pius XI likely deserves it.
Archbishop Wenski is the right man in the right place, with a knowledge that he and his flock will not be able to tread water when Miami becomes part of the Gulf of Mexico.
The IRS was never going to revoke tax exemptions for Churches on gay marriage. Of course, this does not prevent the Department of Labor from going after those Churches who essentially abuse gay married employees. The new religious freedom (really religious power) regulations were long expected to be non-controversial. The GOP attained its prize, the Senate, so you won't hear about them again. Get ready for a new war on women to be declared by NOW any time soon.
