Glad to see some fellow Catholics on here. As others have noted, many in the Catholic church have been misguided in their beliefs regarding "social justice."
Anybody who watches Notre Dame games can see the university made commercials discussing everything from global warming to AIDS in Africa, yet nothing about the faith or helping stop abortion because they feel it's too divisive. It's crazy that ND won't do this, yet AUBURN UNIVERSITY of all schools made a commercial a couple years ago about one of their former baseball players becoming a Catholic priest! It showed him in church, in his vestments and everything!
When I was in Catholic elementary school, the ladies who ran the school were all into the diversity thing. There was mandatory black history month projects, we even had a special mass for Martin Luther King every January. Friends have told me that at their Catholic school they had a day where the races were "reversed," and the white kids got discriminated against all day. The white kids would get everything last, when they did their classwork, the teacher would crumble it up and tell them to do it over, not answer them when they raised their hand, etc.
To me though, that doesn't represent the Catholic faith just some misguided people who were influenced by socialists and Marxists who are, ironically, atheist. I'm not so much into the traditionalist Latin mass thing, but for sure I'm against this social policy garbage that is really a thinly veiled attempt to retard real social progress where the truth speaks for itself.
Most Catholics I know are true conservatives that are 100% against the socialist agenda. I guess you run into your misguided people in any denomination, I guess it's best to pray for them and try to expose the truth. When you have faithful people standing up for the right cause it's amazing what can happen.
