Richard Rohr | Brenda | Thursday, October 4, 2007 |
Question: What do you think of Richard Rohr? He spoke at our Theresian conference and I was not able to go so I do not know what he is about. My friend is always sending me his meditations from his website and I do not know if I should be engaging in this reading. |

Question Answered by Bro. Ignatius Mary, OLSM
Dear Brenda: "father" Rohr is a dissenter from the Faith and one disgusting person. He supports the dissenting organization Call to Action, and his stance on homosexuality and the Enneagram contradicts Roman Catholic teaching. He speaks in a way that shows his disdain for the Catholic Church making fun of anything distinctly Catholic. This is a man who thinks his opinions outrank the Holy See and who wishes to re-invent the Church in his own image, or get rid of the Church altogether. There is patently no excuse for any Catholic organization, any Catholic bishop, or any Catholic priest to allow this man to speak at their events. Those that do, and this includes Cardinal Mahoney, should be ashamed of themselves allowing the Faithful to be contaminated by this man's anti-Catholic dribble and will be held to account before God for their shameful behavior and teaching. For good insight into the nature of these non-catholic Catholics read the article at Catholic Culture website, Top Amchurch Catechists Subvert Church’s Doctrine and Discipline. Any Catholic should avoid this man. God Bless,
