It is the editorial that all of us traditionalists have been waiting for from Patrick Buchanan. We knew it would be coming, sooner or later. After all, one of America's most high profile Catholic traditionalists, and arguably the last true paleoconservative political commentator, could ignore the mess of the Bergoglio papacy for only so long.
Here it is: Papal Neutrality in the Culture War.
Yet here is further confirmation His Holiness seeks to move the Catholic Church to a stance of non-belligerence, if not neutrality, in the culture war for the soul of the West.
There is a small problem with neutrality. As Trotsky observed, “You may not be interested in war, but war is interested in you.” For the church to absent itself from the culture war is not to end that war, but to lose it.

There is little doubt that the pope made some remarks that have been used against advocates of Catholic Morality.
In a way he agrees with BXVI--Catholic life cannot be reduced to morality. BXVI, however, thought the core of the Church was worthy Eucharistic celebration (i.e., Latin ad orientem). I'm not sure about Papa Bergoglio, but it's obvious he's learning on the fly. He never worked in Rome,…More

I think the Pope's words and action have done a great deal of harm, and will continue to do so.

The pope has a point in that the Catholic life must be more than just fighting the culture wars.
On the other hand, there are people in Argentina and now in the US and Europe who think that he has been negligent in promoting Catholic morality.More
