And , I do not mean the rock band....A young conservative told me yesterday that there will be war because of the politics of envy. He said that one of the reasons is that Catholics have not understood their own doctrine regarding the dignity of the individual and that people think they can get a quick fix of the crisis. He has not read my long series on socialism this past week, as he has not had the Internet. One of the things Americans do not understand is the lack of conservative news in Europe. With Sky in control, for example, one has to pay extra for Fox or the conservative stations. I saw more conservative analysis watching Italian television in Malta, than I have on the French or English television stations. Forget RTE, the national, television station in Eire, which is not only vehemently anti-Vatican, but leftists in politics as well. For conservative views, one must use the Internet.
The young socialist and communists do not have religion, except the religion of communism and even, indeed, of socialism. As long as Catholics are asleep, or even worse, complicit in the organization and success of socialism and communism, we do not have a good future on this horizon for Europe, or the world.
Wake up, apathetic and socialist Catholics. Repent, and begin to realize that the new president of France will not tolerant Catholicism, the greatest enemy against the isms.....here is a link.
And, why are the socialists, young, middle aged and old on the media not realize that austerity is the only way out of crisis. Socialists act publicly as if there is no financial crisis. What does that say about their views reality? American Catholics must lead the way in all of this.
By the way, and I know this from several sources, Hollande wants to shut down private schools, especially religious ones, by taking away their tax-free status and other means. I wonder if I shall be able to return to France and teach again? Wake up, Catholics.
I find it interesting that the vast majority of socialists I meet are either atheists or Catholics. Something is wrong here. Ironically, as I am re-reading all of Dickens systematically, I re-read The Tale of Two Cities two weeks ago. I suggest all read or re-read this. Evil begets evil.
