'The council (Vatican II) inspired the American Church to teach to its seminarians the latest ideas in modern psychology, but to their later regret, Coulson and Rogers found their legacy as humanistic psychologists to be the dismantling of many convents and seminaries throughout California and elsewhere. By the mid-70s, both Rogers and Coulson had retracted their beliefs. But Coulson still believes that their ideas, and the ideas of Abraham Maslow, in particular, sowed the seeds for the moral crisis in religious life that is clearly evident today.

PSYCHOLOGIST, WILLIAM R. COULSON'S HOME DIOCESE, THEN AND NOW AND VERY CLOSE.

'This movement to teach therapeutic methods everywhere — this Too Much Psychology — is not the only cause of the Church’s present distress; but as a largely unnoticed cause, it deserves now to be addressed. Settlements and civil trials in Santa Rosa provide useful
data: Don Kimball’s, of course; Garry Timmons’; the death of Father John Rogers; Bishop Ziemann’s resignation.



Three or four years ago I talked with Bishop Ziemann after Confirmation at St. Anthony in Mendocino. I asked him about rumors of sexual improprieties at Mt. Angel seminary in regon. He told me not to worry: “I am on the board.” So of course I worried, the more when the press reported the reason for his resignation.'

The event began before Bush's arrival with a fiery invocation by the Rev. Jack Miller of West Ripley Baptist Church.
"We have ridiculed the absolute truth of your word in the name of multiculturalism," Miller prayed. "We have been forced to honor sexual deviance in the name of freedom of expression. We have exploited the system of education in the name of the lottery. We have toyed with the idea of helping human life in the name of medical research. We have killed our unborn children in the name of choice."'

CULTURE SHOCK ALERT OP-ED!

'Steve Ditko, the original artist and co-creator of the Spider-Man comic ... explained his philosophy of art in a narrative on a 1987 video titled "The Masters of Comic Book Art," hosted by author Harlan Ellison. In his introduction, Ellison dismissed Ditko's plea that heroes in art and literature be measured by the moral courage shown in objective good vs. evil choices.

The artist now seems prophetic for saying in the show that if we glorify the anti-hero in art, then anti-life and violence will come into our culture. The anti-heroes of the Columbine-like killings in public schools and the Sept. 11 terrorists seem to justify his claim.'

' the old reasons that prevented us from breaking away from Saudi Arabia are no longer compelling. More and more, the royals’ oil policy is neither pro-Western nor so crucial as it once was in determining world pricing. The present government has been an active abettor of terror, and perhaps the most virulent anti-Israeli Arab country in the region. Al Qaeda and other terrorists have received bribe money from the Saudis, without which they could not operate so effectively. That the monarchy has not been forthcoming in tracking those with ties to the September 11 murderers reflects its real worry about where such investigations might lead. And Saudi cash has been a force for radicalism right here in the United States, casting into doubt the legitimacy and purpose of almost every Islamic charity now operating within our borders. Nor should we forget that no country in the world is more hostile to the American idea of religious tolerance, free speech, constitutional government, and sexual equality.'

Blogging. The 24-7 opinion sites that offer free speech at its straightest,
truest, wildest, most uncensored, most thoughtful, most strange. Thousands of independent information entrepreneurs are informing, arguing, adding information. Imagine if we'd had them in 1776: "As I
wrote in yesterday's lead item on SamAdams.com, my well meaning cousin John continues his grammatical nitpicking with Jefferson (link requires registration) 'Inalienable,' 'unalienable,' whatever. Boys, let's fight. Start the war." Blogs may one hard day become clearinghouses for civil support and information when other lines, under new pressure, break down.'

One chapter of the book discussed American law and began by saying that the Judaic Ten Commandments were the basis of all American and Western jurisprudence. I dare you find that in an American high school textbook today, though it is undeniably true."'

THAT'S JUST MY OPINION HENRY A. HONIG


Mr. President, Arafat and his cronies do not want peace with Israel. They do not want peace with America, or, for that matter, with any other western nation.
They want to eliminate Judaism and Christianity from the Middle East and, then, from the rest of the world.


I have heard several eye witness accounts of Muslim children, as young as 5 years old, building twin towers of blocks and then ramming toy airplanes into those towers while cheering. This is not taking place in Arab countries, Mr. President. It is happening on our own soil. Babies are being taught to hate us in our own land. This, too, must be stopped.
