I'm not presenting an original angle and never claimed to be.  The National Catholic Reporter has always attracted progressives. My very progressive priest read it faithfully while I worked for him and until he could no longer read.  What is your purpose for posting on this forum other than to insult and accuse us that we are not Catholic or American enough for your tastes?
The regulars here do not visit Zed or Register.  We come here to filter out Catholic misogyny and republican racism.  I just realized that you may be Marty Erble of last week.  I'm done.  Pretty dishonest to keep changing your screen name.  What kind of a Catholic does that?  Ciao!
