The LCWR (Magisterium of Nuns) v The Bishops

Catholic institutions are failing because of failing “Catholic identity”
On this blog I have harped incessantly about Catholic identity. I have proposed that a primary aim of Pope Benedict’s pontificate is to revitalize our Catholic identity. If we don’t know who we are and what we believe then we … Continue reading
