“Fundamentalism in a time of insecurity.”

Filed under: Anthropology, Dissent, Priesthood, SSA Disorder, Sexuality — shelray @ 11:39 pm


The Archbishop of Dublin has said that homosexual men are not excluded from ordination as Catholic priests, according to a report in the Irish Times. The archbishop spoke about the problems he saw arising from religious conservatism in the United States; he remarked on the temptation toward “fundamentalism in a time of insecurity.” I am not really sure of the insecurity to which he is referring. I am concerned about the difficulty of so many intelligent men not being able to accept the clear instruction set forth by the Church. With so many souls at risk and the use of terms like “conservative” makes me think that the idolatry of politics has blinded and hardened the heart of another Church leader.
