Dare I repeat myself? "Yo, editors, this conclave" was "not about America"
Re: Catholics those who go to church every week or so? Are they the most loyal participants in all of the Sacraments of the faith?
A minor quibble, but this does approach 'No True Scotsman" territory. Inattentive or slothful Catholics are still Catholic-- as ex-Catholics are not.
How is pro catechism " right wing "? Pro catechism Lutherans are just traditional.
Please define "right wing " Catholic doctrines or beliefs.
My term is pro-Catechism.
Were you asking ME to define that term, of for the New York Times to define it?
"Surveys show that vast majority of 'American Catholics' are ex-Catholics or 'cultural Catholics' who rarely visit a kneller."
I'm not Catholic, so I have to ask what/who is a "kneller"? I can't find a description for it on the web.
In Catholic Churches (and some Anglicans) there are kneelers in each pre for folks to kneel on as they pray.
Pew
Typo. I’ll fix. Kneeler.
I had to look that up, too. Have you coined a phrase or is that actually a thing, "visiting a kneeler"?
He just means kneeling down in church.
On a kneeler. ;-)
