      Seems quite convenient that they invented, erm, found a religious teaching that’s directly incompatible with liberalism.

    American Catholicism might as well be a new Protestant sect. Catholicism does not really work like this. And the last three points don’t really fit in with Catholic social teaching. I think the article should make clear that this “Catholicism” is really a subset of American Catholics and nothing more. Nothing to do with the Vatican, the Pope, and the Catholics in Europe, Latin America and elsewhere. Also, generally the Church supported liberal political parties especially when the alternative was socialist/communist, so to say that Catholicism is against liberalism is incorrect.

      I think it’s only a Matter of time before American Catholics break away from Rome. Maybe they wil become the new “Church of Christ and His Blessed Armaments”

      American Catholics literally believe you can have “liberal” and “conservative” bishops. No you dumb fucks, there is ONE head of the church and Bishops that argue with the Pope are not following the church.

      Whether or not this is all dumb as shit is a different conversation, but if you’re going to be a part of the Catholic Church, you don’t also then get to pick and choose based on your opinions on various issues.

      Conservative Catholics, are not Catholic

    “Catholic Integralism” sounds like all the things Protestants were worried that Kennedy would do in the 60s if he was elected. Now the Protestants and Catholics get along, at least while it is politically expedient, so there isn’t so much hand wringing about it.

    My disdain and contempt for the catholic religion only grows as it sprouts new tumors of ever more cancerous, fundamentalist, and inhumane ideology.

    I was raised catholic, for the record (though am now atheist).

    The basic position of Catholic Integralism is that there are two areas of human life: the spiritual and the temporal, or worldly. Catholic Integralists argue that the spiritual and temporal should be integrated – with the spiritual being the dominant partner. This means that religious values, specifically Christian ones, should guide government policies.
