Edit: Vox Populi has been picking on this fraud for a few days at least, and James Martin has been particularly insufferable in recent days too, as he's feeling his oats.
Truly, it's astonishing that this man is unironically presented by the media, and the official apparchiks, as a Catholic priest in good standing.
There's nothing Catholic about him, and like a lot of his confreres, he despises Catholics.
It is a sign of the decadence of the state of contemporary Catholicism that those in this minority are called "liberals", or perhaps even "moderates"--advocates for the importance of "pastoral care" alongside doctrine, and even disciples of the "new" doctrine of mercy, advocated by the current Pope.
In fact, of course, they are heretics.
I'm not using the term because I don't like them (though, obviously I don't), but because it is precisely accurate. In Catholic terminology a heretic is one who denies one or more (though not all) claims of Catholic doctrine. If one is in in favor of giving communion to the divorced and remarried, then one must deny at least one doctrinal claim.

ReplyDeleteI am new here. Seems every Catholic blog has it's own personal modernist antichrist asshole. Looks like I just met yours, Tancredo

ReplyDeleteYEP!...you pretty much labeled gaybriel...and the 23 other names the psycho goes by.
Who is James Martin, and why should we care about his act?
ReplyDeleteHe's been gloating a lot since the decision and launching his own pharasaical campaign of bitterness against those who are Catholic.

Deletea very, very, very influential American Jesuit (out of all proportion to his actual talent and ability)....editor of "Amerika" magazine, homophile extraordinaire, and all-around slimy wormtongue doing his best to erase 2,000 years of the Church in order to build a new one, and to remake Jesus in the image of RuPaul.
ReplyDeleteand one more Barnum; a most excellent piece of commentary on exactly who james martin is, and why his poison needs to be beaten down every time he spoons it up. The man should be defrocked, and the modern jesuit order suppressed for the good of the Church (instead, the FFI is destroyed; that says it all, eh?)......

ReplyDeleteI did look him up after posting the question, Tancred and Susan. I even found Barnhardt's piece, which certainly rang true.
ReplyDeleteHowever the question still stands, and I pose it again: Who is James Martin, and why should we care about his act? But I add Fr. Reese as a subject, so you catch my drift better.
Thanks for your responses.
Why should we care about any nationally known fraud who pretends to be Catholic and sits as a judge of real Catholics while legitimizing evil?
DeleteExactamente.
