text: Not entirely agreeing with you MSW.  AmeriChristian Integralism is a profound danger that alarms both conservatives and progressives (both terms understood in its original positive, not negative, meaning).  Sadly, the evil of ideology (the condition I call nomodoctrinophilia) has crept into the church for far too long, and too far.  Extremists of every sort want to have a THEIR King, Law and Order.  Gods answer: Jesus Christ on the Cross.  In good Ignatian Spirit, Pope Francis invites us to join him in following St. Ignatius Loyola's advice: place yourself under that Cross and speak with Jesus Christ as a friend speaks with a friend, then discern what you are called to do as God's friend ("God's friend" respectfully borrowed from St. Gregory of Nyssa).  Spadaro's and Figueroa's article presents the real view people, not only Catholics, from OUTSIDE of the US have on what happens there.  What they see is certainly cause for some serious reflection for all everywhere, not only in the US.
