14. The National Catholic Reporter is staffed by many Vatican II adherents
Edited on Wed Aug-10-11 10:04 AM by musette_sf
and their editorial and reporting content is mostly on (a) Traditional, REAL Catholic ethics of supporting workers, the poor, and the disenfranchised, and (b) supporting the growing wellspring worldwide of discontent and dissent with the Wojo/Ratzo Magisterium, and their regressive march to the 1100s. (Nothing would please the Ratzofarians more than to gin up Inquisition v.2.0.).

The NCR is the ONLY mainstream Catholic voice out there that doesn't obseqiously kiss the ring and the red kidskin Prada shoes of the Ratzofarian hierarchy. Believe me when I tell you that until I found the NCR, the Church was dead to me. We of the Catholic Church of social justice are still around. The European Catholic clergy has been quite vocal of late on their extreme displeasure with the current Vatican agenda. They have had it with the contraception ban and the ban on female clergy and married clergy, the denigration of gays and women, and the culture of child abuse and coverups. The NCR has been reporting on ALL of the worldwide dissent within the Church regardling the present repressive hierarchy.

If you aren't familiar with the NCR, suggest you have a read and check it out online. Articles can be commented on, and you will find among the commenters many who are likewise fed up with the current hierarchy. You'll also find a few dedicated Ratzofarians whose small-mindedness and meanness is displayed for all to see.
