New York Times Ad Calls on Liberals to Leave the Church

The Freedom From Religion Foundation has run a full page ad in the New York Times urging "Progressive Catholics" to abandon religion and leave the Church. Read about it at Creative Minority Report.

Why I am a Bad Catholic

"I, for example, am a Roman Catholic, albeit a bad one. I believe in the Holy Catholic Apostolic and Roman Church, in God the Father, in the election of the Jews, in Jesus Christ His Son our Lord, who founded the Church on Peter his first vicar, which will last until the end of the world. . . . I believe in God and the whole business but I love women best, music and science next, whiskey next, God fourth, and my fellowman hardly at all. Generally I do as I please. A man, wrote John, who says he believes in God and does not keep his commandments is a liar. If John is right, then I am a liar. Nevertheless, I believe."
