Dedicated to Red-Blooded Catholics

In a number of countries the Catholic Church has declined catastrophically. In the U.S. (starting in the mid-1960s) the Church has completely collapsed. The Church was once served by prominent politicians in the Republican and especially the Democratic Party. Important universities were devoted to the interests of the Church. The media was not hostile to the Church. How can we reverse this decline? We should:
Recruit Aggressively – like the Mormons do.
Allow Priests to Marry.
Recruit sports figures.
We must define our enemies:

• Moslems are oil sheiks, cruel dictators, and terrorists. Moslem leaders are unable to offer their people justice. We should not condemn Moslems for being pro-family. (We should be equally pro-family. Why should they be the only ones to breed?)

• Protestants are not our worst enemy. They are more to be pitied. They actually believe that the earth is only about 6000 years old and the story of Noah’s Ark actually happened. Also they are upper class. George Bush is their poster boy.

• Jews have not always been victims. Jewish commissars like Trotsky, Kaganovich, and Yagoda have killed millions. http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-3342999,00.html The Israelis have bombed Palestinian children. Why are Catholics the only ones to apologize?

• Atheists are not leftists. They are rightists. They are libertarians.

We must also define ourselves. Catholics are orthodox and pro-life. We venerate our traditions. We are are happy to die for the ideals the martyrs died for. Yet at the same time we are socialists and anti-imperialists. We must firmly attach ourselves to these popular ideologies. American Catholics will not appreciate this tactic, but it is necessary. I picture Catholics fighting back against Moslem violence in Ethiopia, Chad, Cote D'Ivoire, the Sudan, India, the Balkans, Egypt, France, Spain, Germany, Russia, East Timor, the Philippines, and Indonesia. I picture Catholics combating U.S. and English and Israeli imperialism (in Latin America, the Pacific region, the Middle East). I picture Catholics battling U.S. and British corporations. Sometimes we should stay out of a conflict and watch our enemies fight each other. Some of the Middle East wars fall in this category.

To confront some objections:

• Perhaps you think my position is merely incoherent – a strange conglomeration of left and right. I grant you that within the current system my position is incoherent, but that same system has caused our destruction.

• Perhaps you think I am not being charitable enough. My response is: please stop being so naïve. The Church would never have survived without warriors like Charles Martel and Charlemagne.
