Bill Donohue, the President of the Catholic League, had the following to say in a Newsweek op-ed today. [Be sure to read all the way to the end.]
…There are many ways cultural nihilists are busy trying to sabotage America these days: multiculturalism is used as a club to beat down Western civilization in the classroom; sexual libertines seek to upend the cultural order by attacking religion; artists use their artistic freedoms to mock Christianity; Hollywood relentlessly insults people of faith; activist left-wing legal groups try to scrub society free of the public expression of religion; elements in the Democratic party demonstrate an animus against Catholicism; and secular-minded malcontents within Catholicism and Protestantism seek to sabotage their religion from the inside.
Yesterday’s radicals wanted to tear down the economic structure of capitalism and replace it with socialism, and eventually communism. Today’s radicals are intellectually spent: they want to annihilate American culture, having absolutely nothing to put in its place. In that regard, these moral anarchists are an even bigger menace than the Marxists who came before them…
Catholics were once the mainstay of the Democratic Party; now the gay activists are in charge. Indeed, practicing Catholics are no longer welcome in leadership roles in the Party: the contempt that pro-life Catholics experience is palpable. The fact that Catholics for Choice, a notoriously anti-Catholic front group funded by the Ford Foundation, has a close relationship with the Democrats says it all…
The culture war is up for grabs. The good news is that religious conservatives continue to breed like rabbits, while secular saboteurs have shut down: they’re too busy walking their dogs, going to bathhouses and aborting their kids. Time, it seems, is on the side of the angels.
That sounds to me like a challenge!
So, let’s get fucking!
Cultural nihilists, are you with me?
How about you, secular saboteurs?
I know we can win this one, if we can just go cold turkey on the abortions.

Catholics are being persecuted? Sure, Tom Monahan, in your own mind they are. Just keep on spreading your money around so people believe that and run to your Thomas More “Law” Center.
priceless.
my wife is preggers so i’m doing my part
but what’s wrong with walking my dog? is that code for something?
Only America-hating gays walk their dogs.
If we’re going to have an orgy on Water Street, we’d better do it soon, before it gets too cold.
I like the idea of selling condoms that are open at the top, with slogans written on the shaft like “Beat those Catholics!”
“…practicing Catholics are no longer welcome in leadership roles in the Party…”
Catholics like Vice Presiden Joe Biden? Like DNC chair and Virginia governor Tim Kaine? Like 2004 presidential nominee John Kerry? Like the late Ted Kennedy? Like HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius? Like New Mexico governor Bill Richardson? Like our own governor, Jennifer Granholm? Like our US Representative, John Dingell? Like San Francisco mayor and California gubernatorial candidate Gavin Newsome?
Yeah, Democrats hate all those people.
I believe that Catholics are supposed to let their dogs roam free, un-neutered, un-spayed, so that they can procreate. Dog walking is in direct defiance of Catholic doctrine.
“Cultural nihilists, are you with me?”
I love that line.
cold turkey on the abortions!? I had my tubes tied years ago, but still need my abortion fix every few months. I’m wondering if Punky’s wife might “loan” me a urine sample.
It makes me sad that I can’t have an abortion every month.
“It makes me sad that I can’t have an abortion every month.”
I love that line, too.
There’s nothing like an abortion to kick off a weekend of hedonism and America hating. I always try to have mine on Thursday evenings.
Yeah, that’s got to be the worst part of being a man… not being able to have an abortion.

I thought, before this goes much farther, I should clarify and say that I don’t find anything even remotely humorous about abortion. What I find laughable, however, is this notion put forward by Donohue that it’s something that women on the left actually kind of enjoy. It’s preposterous.
If he wants to be concerned about something, he should be concerned about the people in Africa who are dying with AIDS because the Catholic church won’t condone the use of condoms. That’s the real crime here. Not that Mel Gibson isn’t given enough praise in Hollywood.
…This process of self-devaluation is part of a movement towards a modern condition of nihilism in which the majority of time-honoured, ultimate values are disenchanted by the force of instrumental reason. With this, cultural values are set free from the bounds of a religious narrative and are tied instead to a scientific call for infinite progress and perfection…
–Nicholas Gane, Max Weber and Postmodern Theory
So what’s not to love about cultural nihilism?
I’m an exceptionally attractive coed in Ann Arbor who would be willing to make love with many readers of this site for the purposes of getting pregnant and in some small way countering the armies of the Catholic. I will be at the bar at Haab’s tonight. I’ll be wearing what looks to be a black wig, and enormous dark glasses.
Lovey, that stuff was hot 5 times. A+
I don’t know about anyone else, but I’d be willing to chip in $20 to send you to blogging school, so that you could learn how to blog correctly.
