Phoenix Priest Offers Homily Advice on Voting – But Something Is Missing

Last updated on: October 10, 2016 at 3:12 pm By Keith Michael Estrada

Join Keith Michael Estrada on Facebook … Fr. John Lankeit, the Rector of The Cathedral of Saints Simon and Jude Cathedral in Phoenix, Arizona, preached on the 2016 elections from “a Catholic perspective” this Sunday (Oct. 2). I’ve seen some wonderful people around the web praise the homily and the homilist, alike, for various reasons. It’s a lengthy homily, but this isn’t an issue for me. Something else is missing – well, some things are missing. The homily, I think, lacks... Read more

Trump’s Catholic Roundtable: Including a Mix of Catholics Against Catholicism? First draft!

Last updated on: September 24, 2016 at 4:26 pm By Keith Michael Estrada

Join Keith Michael Estrada on Facebook … The Trump campaign announced the creation of an advisory board consisting of men and women who identify as Catholics called the “Catholic Advisory Group”. That’s an awkward sentence. There’s a reason for that. If they’re Catholics, they’re Catholics – so was Ché – but the name “Catholic Advisory Group” should not lead one to believe that it is a group of people advising Trump on Catholic approaches and principles in relation to the...

Tom Williams at Crux says Pope Francis Praised Capitalism Last Year in USA

Last updated on: September 21, 2016 at 4:37 pm By Keith Michael Estrada

Tom Williams at Crux wrote a piece titled: “Pope Francis’s praise of capitalism a surprise on US trip”. Isn’t that strange? When did Pope Francis praise capitalism on his trip to the United States? Or, when has he praised capitalism … ever? He hasn’t. Tom Williams writes: Despite Pope Francis’s well-earned reputation as a critic of the “idolatry of money” and of powerful global economic forces that exploit the poor, he took advantage of his address to the U.S. Congress...

Pope Francis’s Twitter Account Hacked by Liberation Theologian?

Last updated on: September 21, 2016 at 4:05 pm By Keith Michael Estrada

No. No, that didn’t happen. Pope Francis tweeted this: Dialogue is born when I am capable of recognizing others as a gift of God and accept they have something to tell me. — Pope Francis (@Pontifex) September 21, 2016 What does that mean in reference to Liberation Theology? Well, what he ‘tweeted’ is something you find a lot of in liberation theology, but also in a lot of patristics and mystical theology. Dialogue, entering into it, is something we often... Read more

“The Death Penalty Denies God’s plan of Mercy”: Abp. Gomez on Repealing California’s Death Penalty

Last updated on: September 16, 2016 at 6:33 pm By Keith Michael Estrada

Join Keith Michael Estrada on Facebook … In a new video released earlier this month, Los Angeles’ Archbishop José H. Gomez encourages Catholics throughout the state to join the Bishops of California in ending capital punishment by voting for Proposition 62 on November 8. The Archbishop notes that, “The Church teaches that the death penalty can no longer be accepted.” “Every life is sacred,” he explains, as “every person has a dignity that comes from God” and it is to “God alone” that “life belongs.” “The death...

When Marx cited Luther to Slam Capitalism – but Catholics did it First

Last updated on: September 6, 2016 at 3:49 pm By Keith Michael Estrada

Join Keith Michael Estrada on Facebook … In the third volume of Capital, put together and published by Engels in 1894, we find Marx citing M. Luther. We find the Marx’s lengthy Luther quote in part IV, ch. 20. Reading Marx, I cannot help but think of Proudhon’s “La propriété, c’est le vol!” Luther is cited in the middle of the following sentence: “Commercial capital, when it holds a dominant position, is thus in all cases a system of plunder,...

Join Keith Michael Estrada on Facebook … Read for yourself. With the full text of Pope Francis’s in-flight interview published, I thought I’d share something interesting. Returning home from Poland upon the conclusion of World Youth Day, the Pope was asked a question on terrorism and his initiative for counteracting it. The reporter asked: Your concrete initiatives to counteract terrorism, violence? Pope Francis answered: Terrorism is everywhere. You think of the tribal terrorism of some African countries. It is terrorism and also .... Read more
