I can agree with that. What then, is their message? If they are not attempting to be faitful to the Catholic faith, but report on Catholicism, who is their audience, what is their motive? If you aren't Catholic or at least aren't faithful to the Church, why not ignore it, or reject it all together? What basis does NCR have for calling someone a hypocrite, or calling faithful Catholics they disagree with Jansenist?

I'd like to hear your response. My belief is that NCR believes that Catholicism is useless as it currently is.  They see it as antiquated, oppressive, overly concerned about rules, dogma and doctrine. Thus, NCR is attempting to create what it believes to be the 21st century Catholic Church, now that we are all enlightened, way way smarter than those saints that lived 500 years ago. In short, NCR feels it sees how the Church should be, and is doing its best to get it there. 

So is NCR Catholic in the real sense, no. Is it Catholic in its own mind? You bet ya.
