Here is one:

- Too many Catholics have the sickness of political correctness. They
wanted so much to have a dialogue with everyone (including certain
other religions) that they partially compromised themselves and adopted
alien pseudo-values (the latest one being when a number of Catholic
universities adopted the line of materialistic Darwinism!) As for the
Holy Father, he can do no more, considering the Church's situation -
that of a great edifice that is cracked, undermined from within and

merit of being the first one in half a century to have taken rectifying
positions equal to the risks that he grasped completely (among others,
he is not lured by the "mono-dia-logue" between Islam and
Christianity.) No, the Church is not of this world, it is only in this
world.
