Secular Fundamentalists And Their Anti-Catholic Strategy

Here's their vision of what the church should be like:

...on May 28 Le Devoir published an op-ed written by a sociologue who calls for the dissolution of the Church and its transformation in Quebec into a network of cooperatives :“This cooperative network, based on modern values of equality and non-segregation of the sexes, of anti-racism and the rejection of homophobia, would permit us to experience together, socially and ceremoniously, the great moments of life between birth and death. This project of modernization of the Catholic institution seems to me, moreover, completely compatible with the fundamental secularity of the state which is indispensable to social peace.”

In other words, they want the church to morph into some sort of a hybrid of a community-run charity, a civil registry and a banquet hall that adapts to its clientele, because the customer is always right. They wouldn't mind a little bit of ceremonious flavor, but just a little bit and, of course, in the most inclusive manner. Let's say the first reading should be from the Greek mythology, the second - from the Bhagavad Gita and the third one... oh, well, we might as well let it be from the Gospel, as long as it's politically correct. None of that "made them male and female" or "what God has joined together let no man separate" stuff, pppplease!

It would be funny, if they weren't so serious about destroying the moral authority of the Catholic church in an attempt to reshape the Church as they see fit:

It struck me that what the media wants is for the Church to feel so ashamed of its activities that it will not speak up against any evil or injustice. It doesn't matter if any of the accusations against the church are true. All that matters is that the Church is silenced. I've actually seen this strategy many times before. When the Church speaks out on any issue whatsoever, someone is bound to bring up sex abuse allegations as some sort of proof that the Church should just but out.

I am starting to realize one of the main goals of the media coverage of the Church - to remove in people's minds its moral authority. Obviously this is totally absurd. There has been abuse in the church, but the vast majority of people in the Church, such as priests and nuns, are innocent. They have valid points to make and deserve to be heard.

The media and many individuals do not like hearing what the Church has to say. They only want approval for their actions. The Church speaks the Truth, and people are trying hard to silence the Truth.

Imagine a school where there are 50 teachers. One teacher is accused of sexual abuse. Now, imagine someone saying that no one should listen to any of the teachers in the school because of this. The school has no authority to teach anything because of what this teacher did. That would be absurd.

And we must stand up to those who resort to that kind of absurd in their attempt to silence the Church.
