In Praise of Progress

Feel the need to praise the progress of our Catholic community in Canada? The right-wing, psycho-fanatics have too much influence on our priests and church media. Prominent members of our faith community live in fear because they dare to think outside the limited horizon of faith. So it is time to give gratitude for those in our faith-community who make progress in maintaining our self-sufficiency as church. That is what our blog is all about.

News story is really an advertisement for events that will happen next year! That is good news because it means that our vision of church has a firm hold on the country's largest Catholic newspaper. We are also encouraged to see that what "amazes" Catholic thinkers today is the prospect that our religion might change! Tell you what ... today we worship the Trinity, but tomorrow we might be worshipping the Quaternity. Praise for progress indeed. Screw those stories about conversion, grace and prayer. And why should a Catholic newspaper write stories about a pro-life activist and population expert who visited a local parish to talk about population trends, when it can publish stories about revolutionary old foggies like Gregory Baum? To thank the staff at the Catholic Register for using the newspaper as a publicity bulletin for Regis College and St. Jeromes, please send a note of appreciation to: editor@catholicregister.org.
