Educated Catholics Threat to Church Claims Bishop

by Admin on November 18, 2008

The Rt Rev Patrick O’Donoghue, the Bishop of Lancaster, has claimed that graduates are spreading scepticism and sowing dissent. Instead of following the Church’s teaching they are “hedonistic”, “selfish” and “egocentric”, he said.

In particular, the bishop complained that influential Catholics in politics and the media were undermining the Church.

While not naming names, he suggested that such people had been compromised by their education, which he said had a “dark side, due to original sin”.

If your religious arguments are only based on hersay or myths disguised as a bible, then one would understandably be defensive. Try using the actual words attributed to Jesus, and not the demented hookum that has found its way into peoples mouths and minds over the last 2000+ years.It may have been usefull through the dark ages to control people through fear, but in this day and age you are driving away intellegent people by perverting the teachings of a good man.
