The Problem(s) With ‘LGBTQ Catholic’
The term is both the carrier of a theological program and an emblem of various political causes.
The late Father Richard John Neuhaus had a love/hate relationship with The New York Times.
Richard was a passionate partisan of New York City, which he sometimes described as a preview of the New Jerusalem, but the Grey Lady’s parochialism nonetheless led him to occasionally dismiss New York’s most prestigious daily as a “parish newsletter.”
He regularly castigated the Times’ editorials for their air of smug infallibility.
