Australian cardinal faces the Vatican's law of the jungle
http://www.cruxnow.com/church/2014/09/27/australian-cardinal-faces-the-vaticans-law-of-the-jungle/
In bureaucracies everywhere, when someone's interests are threatened
by a cycle of reform, one time-honored resistance strategy is to dig
up dirt on the reformers. We've already seen it under Pope Francis
with regard to Monsignor Battista Ricca, a 58-year-old Italian cleric
tapped by the pontiff in June, 2013 as his delegate to the Vatican
bank, monitoring a clean-up operation intended to spare the bank
future scandals. Now a bigger target seems to be in the sights of the
Italian news magazine l'Espresso, in the form of Australian Cardinal
George Pell, the secretary for the economy under Francis and
effectively the pope's finance czar...

Arrest of former Polish prelate is inkblot test for sex abuse reform
http://www.cruxnow.com/church/2014/09/24/arrest-of-former-polish-prelate-is-an-inkblot-test-for-sex-abuse-reform/
In many ways, the case of ex-Archbishop Jozef Wesolowski, the former
Vatican diplomat accused of paying underage boys in the Dominican
Republic for sexual acts, has become an inkblot test for broader
impressions of where the Catholic Church stands on recovery from its
child sexual abuse scandals.
Maybe Francis isn't after a lurch to the left, but a new balance
http://www.cruxnow.com/church/2014/09/23/pope-francis-international-theological-commission-new-balance/
Especially on the heels of rumors that Pope Francis is about to demote
American Cardinal Raymond Burke to a ceremonial Vatican job,
Saturday's choice of Blase Cupich as the new Archbishop of Chicago
cemented impressions in many quarters of a lurch to the left in
Catholicism. Taken together, these steps seem to paint a clear
political picture. Therein, however, lies the problem...

Episode 84 — Matrimony, Electioneering and Technology (September 16, 2014)
The Pope conducting a mass wedding ceremony is usually grounds enough
for big news, but when some of the couples are announced to have been
cohabiting and having had children before tying the knot, it creates
even more headlines. Lucy, James and Gavin are on the case, wrestling
with the tricky issue, as well as looking at Archbishop John Dew's
reflection on the state of New Zealand politics, a willingness for
more NZ victims of clerical sex abuse to come forward and Pope
Francis's latest first — an international Google Hangout with a group
of young people. The show concludes with an uplifting story of grace
under difficult circumstances. Enjoy the show.

Cardinals jousting in public? Been there, done that
http://www.cruxnow.com/church/2014/09/18/cardinals-jousting-in-public-been-there-done-that/
Back in February, I was sitting in a Rome restaurant with a member of
the College of Cardinals the day after retired Cardinal Walter Kasper
of Germany had delivered an impassioned appeal to fellow members of
the church's most exclusive club for relaxing the church's ban on
divorced and remarried Catholics receiving Communion. I asked the
cardinal what he made of Kasper's speech. He put a pained expressed on
his face, paused as if to measure to his words, and then delivered the
following verdict. "That guy," he said, "is off his rocker." Our
conversation was on background, but in recent days the anti-Kasper
backlash has burst into full public view ...

While money and energy continues to be spent on global talks about
climate change, Pacific islanders are scrambling to build sea walls
out of sticks, stones, shells and coral, to protect their lands and
homes from erosion and rising sea levels. This is one of the findings

Episode 84 — Matrimony, Electioneering and Technology (September 16, 2014)
The Pope conducting a mass wedding ceremony is usually grounds enough
for big news, but when some of the couples are announced to have been
cohabiting and having had children before tying the knot, it creates
even more headlines. Lucy, James and Gavin are on the case, wrestling
with the tricky issue, as well as looking at Archbishop John Dew's
reflection on the state of New Zealand politics, a willingness for
more NZ victims of clerical sex abuse to come forward and Pope
Francis's latest first — an international Google Hangout with a group
of young people. The show concludes with an uplifting story of grace
under difficult circumstances. Enjoy the show.

Cardinals jousting in public? Been there, done that
http://www.cruxnow.com/church/2014/09/18/cardinals-jousting-in-public-been-there-done-that/
Back in February, I was sitting in a Rome restaurant with a member of
the College of Cardinals the day after retired Cardinal Walter Kasper
of Germany had delivered an impassioned appeal to fellow members of
the church's most exclusive club for relaxing the church's ban on
divorced and remarried Catholics receiving Communion. I asked the
cardinal what he made of Kasper's speech. He put a pained expressed on
his face, paused as if to measure to his words, and then delivered the
following verdict. "That guy," he said, "is off his rocker." Our
conversation was on background, but in recent days the anti-Kasper
backlash has burst into full public view ...

Surprise! One of the Church's family issues is polygamy
http://www.cruxnow.com/church/2014/09/11/surprise-one-of-the-churchs-family-issues-is-polygamy/
Say "family issues" to most Americans or Europeans, and they're likely
to flash on divorce, or the challenges of single-parent households, or
perhaps same-sex relationships and the push for gay marriage. What
probably wouldn't come naturally to mind is polygamy. Yet in many
parts of the non-Western world, polygamy is a major feature of family
life, and thus a major pastoral challenge for the Catholic Church...

Archbishop John Dew: Outrage over dirty tricks healthy
http://www.nzherald.co.nz/opinion/news/article.cfm?c_id=466&objectid=11319165
The Greek philosopher Aristotle referred to teaching and politics as
the "noble professions". There would still be general agreement among
most New Zealanders about the former, but less so about the latter,
particularly in the wake of the Dirty Politics revelations, and the
political debate that has swirled around them ...

The role faith plays in the lives of Taranaki people has changed
through the years. In 2013, more than 10,000
around the region chose not to identify with any religion at all. What
is being done around the region to turn this trend around and does it
even matter?

Teacher Joe Hughes was a physical education specialist and devised for
youngsters programmes that put them into competition not with others,
but with themselves. The class fat boy (or girl) never missed out – if
they put the effort in they, too, could be winners.

Hard questions we're not asking Pope Francis
http://www.cruxnow.com/church/2014/09/02/hard-questions-were-not-asking-pope-francis/
Pope Francis is an undeniably attractive figure whose concern for
people at society's margins can be awesome to behold. As a result,
it's almost impossible sometimes not to go soft on the man. Yet
precisely because there's so much to like, Francis sometimes gets a
free pass on the sort of legitimate questions any other leader would
attract. At least four hard questions we should be asking more often
come to mind...
