Non-Catholics constantly misunderstand the nature of Catholicism and the Papacy.
To be clear: 99.99% of the time, the Pope’s opinions are just his opinions. We aren’t bound by them and often disagree with them—especially over the past 20 years.
The current gap between the laity, the other laity, and the Senior Clergy is primarily one of age.
Catholics over 65 are virtually all relatively liberal.
Catholics over ~45 are virtually all mirrors of their local politics.
Catholics between ~35 and ~45 lean hard in favor of Trump.
Catholics under 35 are virtually all praying for a Pope to order a Crusade against Congress and California.
The Pope and USCCB are all over 65.
It’s not hard to see what’s going on.
@chnews IIRC - in the early days of the NCHC, the hockey writers for the Grand Forks Herald were dead set against Minnesota State being admitted to the NCHC and actively campaigned against it. Does anyone else remember that?
What the Ruck?
Mike – On your podcast, I heard you talking about the benefits of rucking. You said, “I’d probably weigh 230lbs if I didn’t walk 8 miles a day with 65lbs on my back.” With great respect, are you exaggerating? Maybe just a little bit? I hate to call bullshit, but I’m half your age and in the best shape of my life. I ruck three times a week, usually 4 miles with thirty pounds – and it absolutely kicks my ass. Hard to believe a man of your…experience, is walking twice as far with double the weight. But if you are, good on ya!

Hi Jack
I saw your question last night, and thought of you this morning, when I was embracing my daily dose of self-inflicted discomfort. Obviously, I can’t prove anything I say, or expect you or anyone to take my claims at face value. Nevertheless, my honest answer is attached…
@NeelyTamminga I remember when IBM needed to reduce headcount in 1988 and offered employees two years pay and $25,000 to quit (they didn't want to end their history of no layoffs).
