Father Reese stated: "I must remind my progressive friends that every change has unintended consequences."

I know this is a little off the subject of the article, but I am always somewhat confused by the idea of Progressive Catholics. Progressivism  to me represents an ideology that has absorbed secularism with its atheism and militantly anti-Christian and anti-Catholic tendencies. To be "progressive" means that one thinks the state should have authority over every aspect of a society's culture and over every aspect of the individual's life.  Also, Progressivism is de facto socialist. Progressives also promote the so-called pro-choice position respecting abortion. These same support gay marriage,  and take other positions of morality inimical to the Catholic Faith. 

But for lack of space in which to write, I could mention other ways that Progressivism is contrary to the faith. So I will now ask how can one be Progressive and Catholic?  Enlighten me!
