| | Catholic Culture : Document Library : Catholicism vs. Freemasonry—Irreconcilable Forever |
 | | It is, in a word, "Counterfeit Catholicism." For its "God" is the "Counterfeit God": the one who would be as God, the one who is the prince of this world, the one who is the Father of Lies. | | | For Catholicism is essentially a revealed religion; it is essentially supernatural, both in its destiny and in its resources. | | | Since the Church's claim to be the One True Church is ultimately founded and validated on the reality of the One True God, the opposing Masonic claim must ultimately derive from a perception of God that diametrically opposes the Church's faith. |

| | REC2004: Cardinal Mahony online chat |
| | Cardinal: As the Second Vatican Council teaches us, it is the Church's belief that everyone goes to heaven "through the salvific merits of Jesus Christ." Therefore, if they belong to another faith community, we believe that it is still the merits of Jesus' Paschal Mystery that enables them to reach the Kingdom of God. | | | Cardinal: Scripture is very clear that the people throughout the Gospels were supported of, and responsive to, Jesus. | | | Cardinal: Actually, there is no such thing as the "Catholic traditionalist, modernist, movement." Either one is in full communion with the Catholic Church, in unity with the Successor of Peter, or not. |

| | Talking of the reasons for the country's slump in vocations, the cardinal refers to the decline in the stable Catholic families that once provided children with a fundamental understanding of the faith and a commitment to Christian life. | | | The architect of a complete overhaul of child-protection procedures within the English Church, Cardinal Murphy-O'Connor has been dogged for months by the scandals that have their roots in the time when he was Bishop of Arundel and Brighton, a diocese on England's southern coast. | | | The leadership of Cardinal Hume certainly had a good effect, but there's also the fact that Catholics themselves are no longer for the most part immigrant people, from Ireland or elsewhere. |

| | Leading Cardinal: Science Incompatible with Catholicism » Outside The Beltway OTB |
| | An influential cardinal in the Roman Catholic Church, which has long been regarded as an ally of the theory of evolution, is now suggesting that belief in evolution as accepted by science today may be incompatible with Catholic faith. | | | That is entirely consistent with the Catholic dogma on a creator who made the endowment, though the scientific version of course does not mention who or what this endower might be, while the Catholic version does define him. | | | Copernicus was the Catholic priest who was received with only the greatest esteem and approbation of other Catholic churchmen, and this was 75 years before Galileo. |

| | HPR The End of Irish Catholicism |
| | A certain sense of superiority and complacency in Irish Catholicism may have rendered the Church ill-prepared for the changes of Vatican II and the greater secularization of the culture. | | | The present inertia of the Irish Church must be confronted by theological and spiritual vision. | | | Most religious orders in Ireland have been active ones, justly esteemed for their work in education and health care; however, the Church must also gain new strength from its spiritual roots and the life of monastic contemplation. |

| | However, many people have lost faith, not in God, but in institutionalised religion, because its leaders have been more committed to politicking and back-scratching than to the care of their congregations. | | | The scandal, which has sent shockwaves throughout the world, indicates that high-ranking members of the Catholic Church were more interested in covering up the big stink. | | | Before Jesus ascended he told Peter, "Feed my sheep." Cardinal Law compromised his responsibility as Christ's 'shepherd' by protecting immoral priests instead of vulnerable, violated children. |

| | He was deputed by his brother bishops to submit to the Holy See the question of revising the constitution of the Church in England, and of substituting for the vicars Apostolic a regular hierarchy, such as had existed in Ireland throughout the darkest days of the penal laws, and had recently been established in Australia. | | | Wiseman instantly wrote to the Premier, Lord John Russell, to deprecate the misconception in the public mind of the papal act; but by the time he reached England, in Nov., 1850, the fanatical fury of the agitation caused by the so-called "Papal aggression"; was at its height. | | | Fourteen bishops, 240 priests, and representatives of many religious orders took part in the opening ceremonies, which were described in no unfriendly spirit by the metropolitan Press. |
