They got it right... sorta
Here's the article from CatholicCulture.org; (Emphasis mine)

Miguel Diaz, the theologian chosen by President Obama to become the new US ambassador to the Holy See, will give Vatican officials a different perspective on American affairs, says John Allen of the National Catholic
Díaz embodies two currents in American Catholicism heretofore not terribly visible in the Eternal City: its burgeoning Hispanic wing, and its center-left theological guild.
But I digress... it's true that the Latino population is growing, but does that mean ALL Latinos agree with this soft-boiled Marxist? Hardly. Latinos are some of the most traditional of all Catholics, but unfortunately, there are a number that are easily bullshitted and suckered in by flash and sizzle. But hey, all demographics can plead guilty to that.
And as far as the "center-left theological guild" is concerned, methinks he means the High Priests of theological and secular Liberalism that have infected our Priesthood and Religious Orders for the past few decades. Nothing new there. Just look at how the majority of our 'leaders' were silent when the Butcher-In-Chief received his honorary doctorate at Notre Damned. Or even better, the constant barrage of heresy preached every Sunday from your garden variey parish. Is it any wonder so many Catholics are numbed and willingly swallow poison?
With a 'center-left theological guild' like them, who needs wolves?
Well the new ambassador does sort of fit in with the ideology of Pope . . . ah . . . er . . . ahem . . . I mean President Obama. At least the Pope will then know with whom he is dealing. The Church has extensive experience dealing with totalitarians and erstwhile, allegedly Catholic (but not really Catholic) Kings of Europe.
ReplyDeleteWould you really want a faithful Catholic represent President Obama before the Pope? :-)
Adeodatus49: Since an ambassador is supposed to represent the policies of the government that sent him, it would be impossible to find a faithful Catholic who could do that.
ReplyDeleteAgreed.
