TKGS: You said it so right! And when you stated non-catholic authority, that is even more right and says it all. This is the way I see it. The people of the dioceses, the New Order, put money in the plate, to the so-called "catholic groups, organizations and such. Next, money goes to groups that are non-catholic, that are pro-aborts, ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖs and such, and the dioceses boast of grant monies. When you take grant money, you, the New Order support the agenda of the federal gov't and everyone they support. The gov't said years ago to the churches, "keep your identity" that means keep your name like "St. Vincent De Paul" and take the fed. $ knowing that when you get the money, you must spend it under the gov'ts ways.
Now, that is sneaky, but it is out in the open! Now, are the religious institutions, that call themselves, ah ha, are they?! NO! But those people in high places in the new order who call themselves priest, bishops and such are putting on the most terrific pony and dog show ever, don't you think?!
Imagine, your college that holds a catholic identity, is not, the money trail shows who they answer to. So, how are they to act? The way of the modernists.
Remember now, the dioceses shook hands with marxism 60 years ago?! Question for Fr. Gruner is, don't you know this? Sure he does. But I guess there is more than one avenue to answer a question without going the way that I see.
