No doubt they failed bigtime there and gave the Church's enemies a freebie that keeps on giving. But what a lot of people don't understand is that, despite its big moral code, Catholicism --if I may speak of it as a mythic organism-- cares a lot more about doctrine and sacraments than about human bad behavior. Bad behavior is a constant. But perhaps precisely because of this, Catholic identity --same for the Orthodox-- is rooted in dogma and in sacraments, which means the centrality of a doctrinally and sacrally empowered priesthood. The Church authorities will always take this more seriously than bad behavior. If you don't accept that, then sooner or later you'll be a Protestant, either overtly or covertly. All that blather about The People of God --which usually sounds like Thirty of the Good Folks Of St. Finbar's Parish-- is public relations.ModerateRealistnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18842286.post-91275878414496986732012-04-19T07:16:00.036-05:002012-04-19T07:16:00.036-05:00I read down as far as the far as the word NOOSPHER...I read down as far as the far as the word NOOSPHERE.

It must be from the Post-modern essay generator:<br />http://www.elsewhere.org/pomo/<br /><br />Which can produce scholarly sounding essays. It's not supposed to actually mean anything. <br /><br />On second though, their version of the essay generator must need some work. The essays they generate aren't nearly as coherent as the ones produced by the above essay generator.Anil Wanghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06223235205492924930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18842286.post-2548325503274342602012-04-18T17:59:24.591-05:002012-04-18T17:59:24.591-05:00"If you can stomach it, check out "consc..."If you can stomach it, check out "conscious evolution."<br /><br />I gave it my best shot.
