Not a spiritual MacDonald’s: Jesuit Father Michael Bellafiore, an instructor of theology at The University of Scranton, has published in The Washington Post „10 ways to revitalize the Catholic Church“. His first recommendation: “Parishioners and clergy must take responsibility for evangelization. The church is not a spiritual McDonald’s whose success largely depends on its managers, the clergy.” His second recommendation: “Clergy need to recommit themselves to the sacrament of confession.” The third: “Catechism needs to be taken more seriously as a ministry.”
It is an honor to be Catholic: Noteworthy are also Father Bellafiore’s following two recommendations. Number four: “Catholic colleges and universities must believe unequivocally that it is an honor to be Catholic.” Number five: “More clergy and religious need to regard the church’s teaching on sexuality and family as good news.”
Novak believes in war: In an interview with the Italian newspaper “La Stampa” the neoconservative Catholic and American philosopher Michael Novak qualified the Pope’s prayer vigil for peace in Syria as just – quote – “what faithful expect from the Pope”. Personally, he believes in war: “For us Americans, it’s not true that war never solved anything.” Novak has only one problem: “I don’t trust the Obama administration’s vision of the world and its strategic competence.” For warmonger Novak, Syria's president is – quote “undoubtedly a war criminal. He was a war criminal even before he used the gas” – Novak repeated the never verified claims from the Obama administration.
Mild pedophilia: The world-celebrated British atheist Richard Dawkins said Saturday in an interview in The Times magazine that he was unable to condemn what he called “the mild pedophilia” he experienced at boarding school in Salisbury, England, in the 1950s. Dawkins recalled how one of the masters “pulled me on his knee and put his hand inside my shorts.” He said other children in his school peer group had been molested by the same teacher but concluded: “I don’t think he did any of us lasting harm.” Peter Watt, director of child protection at the British Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children, called Dawkins’ remarks “a terrible slight”. Gloria.tv wonders how Dawkins knows that this disgusting incident did no lasting harm to himself or to the others? He ended up as an atheist after all who cannot have any hope for his life.
