Links for 06/16/17

Links for 06/16/17: At Time magazine, Elizabeth Dias looks at the new generation of priests and how their vocations are both similar to and different from those of their predecessors. Really nicely done piece.

It is not...

MGB: Here is hoping that the new Pope Francis priests find ways to cope with the St. John Paul priests who are likely the pastors they serve, although some bishops  still remember the spirit of Vatican II.

Sadly, sometimes centrism leads to tax cuts that never should have been passed and health care reforms that lack a key element that would make them work (the pubic option).  Hopefully, Ron Wyden will take this to heart and oppose any compromise on health care or tax reform in this Congress.  It is time to draw a line in the sand.  There can also be no compromise on the right to privacy, no matter how much the Federalist would like to see the justices do so. Viability was the compromise. Compromise in the Congress on personhood is possible, but it would kill both movements by settling the issue.

Post-modernism is what follows neo-liberalism.  No wonder a neo-con like Berkowitz is peeved at it.  No wonder, since there are few post-modern Zionists. These are Bernie folks, aka the future.
