It would appear that Burke isn't "progressive" enough.

I am not Catholic, but I hate to see this. The basics of the Catholic church are conservative, but apparently there is a progressive faction and this can split the church. It has already happened to the Episcopal church. The catholic church does much good around the world and has been successful in spreading Christianity into South America and Africa. I am for anything that deters the spread of that so called "Muslim" religion.

     For those of us who have been searching and studying the Jesuit mission, this should come as no surprise. One of the more controversial testimonies is that the Jesuits have nearly completely infiltrated the Protestant denominations, among other ruses, posing as seminarians and becoming ordained.P
     The congregation of the Highland Park (TX) Presbyterian Church just forked over $7.5 million to buy their church back from the PCUSA, the big mother on the throne, thanks to a very long sighted ruling in 1987 that placed all Presbyterian property into trust for the PCUSA.
     What does that tell us about the hearts of the "reformers," or heretics, really, when you get down to it?  Force gay advocacy onto the congregation. When they vote to leave, make them buy back their own church. Incredible, is it not?
       The challenges facing the Catholic people are enormous, today. There is a very challenging decision to be made, on the individual basis.
