Links for 10/30/15 | National Catholic Reporter by MSW. MGB: The Douthat flap is getting curiouser ad curiouser, with a Bishop joining in. Kaveny may be short, but she references a lot which probably reference a lot. Read if you have time to follow the links.
Jared (and probably his staff) provides a nice summary and he is right about infrastructure. This essay puts the issue where it needs to be, on the pages people read. Ironically, if Biden had run, I would have expected Dr. Bernstein to be moving to the campaign. CBPP dodged a bullet here.
The Remnant et al have been predicting the end of the Catholic Church forever. They never mean to be funny but the irony gets a bit thick. The only way the Catholic Church is ending would be reunion with New Rome and the admission that Peter is there, not here. That, however, was not on the table.
As usual, the Pope has turned the Gospel of the day into something related to his current theme of mercy. He is, of course, correct that God does not turn His back on us, it is us who refuse his mercy, both in terms of confession and in moral behavior. Sadly, there are some in the Church who say differently.
