Why not express your opinion? If you think it is fine to lie, then say so. If you don't, then say so. We can't stand by while people, in the name of the Catholic faith, do what is wrong. We certainly can't praise sin and sinfulness. I know some internet discussions can go overboard, but in this case, Dave seems to be taking issue with the very existence of the Catholic internet community.RobLognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6226269873507053740.post-4734206089122848962011-03-01T11:09:43.102-05:002011-03-01T11:09:43.102-05:00Rob,
I think he is right. Maybe this wasn't ...Rob,<br /><br />I think he is right. Maybe this wasn't the best post, but his point is that Catholics in the blogosphere can adopt an almost fundamentalist attitude, as if they are the same as the Magisterium. I also agree with Dave and John Zmirak that this issue should never have been handled this way. That seems to be what Dave is saying. Not that Dawn Eden was wrong. Not that the discussion shouldn't have happened. But that they handled it badly. They took the focus from Planned Parenthood, and essentially aided those who wanted the issue to go away. <br /><br />-BenHeardAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6226269873507053740.post-83715732994580519142011-03-01T10:14:18.061-05:002011-03-01T10:14:18.061-05:00First, welcome back. Glad to see you up blogging ...First, welcome back. Glad to see you up blogging again. Hope your family is doing well. <br /><br />But I have to admit I was disappointed in this post. You are a Catholic blogger, and yet you more or less dismiss the entire world of Catholic blogs. There are many wonderful bloggers out there who are true servants of the Church. They have every right to discuss these issues. <br /><br />Instead of taking a broad swipe at everyone else, maybe you should give more of an opinion yourself. What do you think? Where do you stand? You said nothing at all, other than suggest that nobody has a right to say anything. Except you.RobLognoreply@blogger.com
