Marginalizing Catholic Teach via Soros, Stryker and GIll

Fr. Z, points out that there are three key billionares who are doing everything they can to attack and discredit the Roman Catholic Church.    Some of these groups have been written about on this blog.

Crisis Magazine has an excellent article on these men and how they fund Catholyc front groups, to do their bidding:

George Soros’ Open Society Institute is most often blamed for attempting to neutralize the abortion issue for Catholics by donating large amounts of money to progressive organizations like Catholics in Alliance for the Common Good to promote pro-choice politicians. Yet the recent attack on San Francisco Archbishop Salvatore Codileone by Faithful America demonstrates that the real assault on the teaching authority of the Catholic Church is now coming from two gay billionaires—Tim Gill and Jon Stryker—who are doing everything they can to discredit Church teaching on sexual morality by directly attacking the Magisterium.

Yes, I am still alive...

Yes, I know I have not posted in a while, but things have been busy at work and with the nicer weather, I have attempted to be outside a little more.

Have not forgotten all of you and hopefully, you have not forgotten me.

Please keep me in your weekly prayers and I will keep you in mine.

Pro-Abortion/ProGay Marriage Politician Honarary Chair of San Miguel School Fundraiser

My friend (Thank you Melvin) received a request to support the San Miguel School Annual Scholarship Benefit on June 19th at the Congressional Country Club.   Now, it is a good school with a a great mission.

When he opened it up, he comes to find that Councilmember Muriel Bowser (DC) is one of the Honorary Chairs, with Msgr. Enzler and the Honorable Maria Otero.

Now, what is a pro-abortion and pro-gay marriage politician doing on as an Honorary Chair of a religious school fundraiser?    Does the San Miguel administration know this?  (It only took me a couple of "google" searches to find this information.)  Do they care?

Once again, we have another example of how we as Catholics are selling out our own values/beliefs for a couple of dollars.

Drone On!!!

The procession had an ancient vibe: Dozens of priests in white robes, leading hundreds more Catholics in a solemn procession through Northeast Washington. People chanted and sang prayers from the 3rd century, asking saints through Christianity’s history for help.

Hovering over it all was a drone.

The Archdiocese of Washington debuted its new, hubcap-sized flying device on Mother’s Day, using it to videotape crowds participating in a procession marking the canonizations of popes John Paul II and John the 23rd (now called St. John Paul II and St. John the 23rd). The video images captured by the drone-mounted camera were used in a YouTube mashup the archdiocese made, mixing soaring classical music and scenes from an earlier indoor Mass.

The Author of The Exorcist Gets a Response from the Vatican

Last September, William Peter Blatty, the author of The Exorcist and an alumnus of Georgetown University, sent a canonical petition to the Vatican, requesting that the Church “require that Georgetown implement Ex Corde Ecclesiae, a papal constitution governing Catholic colleges.”

“Your communications to this dicastery in the matter of Georgetown University … constitute a well-founded complaint,” wrote Archbishop Zani. “Our congregation is taking the issue seriously and is cooperating with the Society of Jesus in this regard.”
