Goodbye, Good Men: How Liberals Brought Corruption Into the Catholic Church

Issuing a passionate denunciation of all those who don't conform to an orthodox, rigidly hierarchical conception of Catholicism, Rose (former editor of the St. Catherine Review) blames liberals and "humanistic" philosophy in the Catholic seminary system for all the ills of the Catholic Church. A major target of his wrath is what he views as a rampant homosexuality and permissiveness towards sexuality in general that he feels is undermining the sacred mission of the church. God-fearing orthodox applicants to the clergy are turned away, he claims, because the seminaries are too "new church." Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
