Ref. http://www.catholicworldreport.com?Controls/PrinterFriendly/ PrinterFriendly.aspx by James Hitchcock. Let’s aim to evangelize via the Magisterium and the Catechism of the Catholic Church. Left or right Dissension is infantile, obsolete and destructive. Let’s take a look at the puffing Bull Frogs:

•For decades conservatives have been marginalized in groups like “Catholic Theological Society of America (CTSA) … penalized for upholding Church teaching, …

•Liberals have an almost reflexive reaction against hierarchical authority.

•Richard McBrien denounces the revival of Eucharistic adoration as a “step backwards,” and to Rick Marrell, and editor of the National Catholic Reporter, Eucharist and Marian devotions constitute a “betrayer” of Vatican II…

•The Jesuit Thomas Reese feared that converts {Anglicans} will “further discourage reform.”

•Part of the liberal conceit is the claim that Vatican officials are ignorant and do not understand the theologies they judge,..

•Some theologians now claim to be a “second magisterium.”

•Sister Theresa Kane, who publicly insulted John Paul II on his first visit to the U.S., now declares that “the male hierarchy is impotent, incapable of equality, ..

The Ox – The Magisterium – Pope Benedict XVI - the Catechism of the Catholic Church

“But when people claim today that the history of the Church’s Magisterium was uniquely the history of a narrow-minded resistance to progress and that the history of genuine enlightenment is to be found only in the history of heresy, then the whole company of the saints – from Paul and John, from Clement of Rome and Ignatius of Antioch, to Maximilian Kolbe and all the Christian martyrs of this century – bears witness to the contrary…

"But power is a means of oppression, and then such a mixture of truth & untruth must be firmly withstood. A principal one is the power to mold public opinion…” [Note women priests-same-sex marriage]. Ratzinger, Co-Workers of the Truth, Meditation - June. 16.
