Please listen closely to this talk by Venerable Fulton Sheen as he expounds upon the need for personal holiness and the sacraments. Starting at 14:30 he said, "sometimes we can cover up our want of individual justice by a great love of social justice." Then he expounded on Judas' conduct when the woman poured oil on Jesus' feet. He was robbing the apostolic purse and that is how he covered up his sin.
The blogger who writes the Conservative Millennial Blog picked up on that with his/her article, "The Problem With SJW Christianity". A key passage in that is, "In Jesus we see that the call for repentance and love are inextricably intertwined. Somewhere along the way, Christians rejected that..". In doing so, these Christians have lost touch with Jesus in their personal lives and have in fact fallen into sin while in the pursuit of their pet SJW projects, much like Judas. Consider these examples.
Many of those sjw people who are focused on "environmentalism" are opposed to the Dakota Pipeline. Recently it has been damaged. We see today in the Des Moines Register that two women claimed responsibility for several episodes of damage to valves using blowtorches, etc.. They held a press conference admitting to that fact while in the process of vandalizing a sign, whereupon they were immediately taken into custody. They are both involved in Iowa's Catholic Worker social justice movement.
Sister Carol Keehan of the Pen of Perfidy, without whom we might never have been cursed with Obamacare, is now shilling for euthanasia while using thinly-veiled language. She decries "excessive treatment" without stating what constitutes "excessive" and more importantly, who determines that for patients. Many of these Obamacare apologists carry on about how the US health system should emulate that of Canada. Well, now that euthanasia has been legalized up there, parents are putting in requests to have their sick and/or disabled children euthanized: that is, put down like dogs. Is that what Keehan had in mind? I wouldn't be one bit surprised to hear that answered in the affirmative.
I also wrote a bit on how some progressives are trying to embroil pro-lifers into the "social justice warrior" errors. The web pages of two of these outfits, Rehumanize International and New Pro-Live Movement, bear testimony to their serious errors. I need not rehash that in this post.
Pursue holiness for your eternal salvation. That means to frequent the sacraments, particularly Confession and Holy Communion. Pray your rosaries. Learn your Faith. Real Catholic action can be undertaken by defense of innocent human life from direct aggressions such as abortion and euthanasia. If you seek to engage in other social actions, by all means research whom you contemplate joining. If they or any of their other associates espouse positions in divergence with Holy Mother Church, avoid them.

Pricking Some Consciences At Rehumanize International
The evidence for that is right here. This seems to be the week for us being called all sorts of names: "Catholic Cyber-Militia", "Cancerous Catholics", and now "Right Wing Nut". Not to worry! Rather than carry on like some little progressive snow-flake, I wear these monikers like badges of honor, but I digress.
They are referring to this post from a few weeks ago, in which I exposed Rehumanize International for being less than a stellar organization. It appears that Sarah Terzo's alleges that I "attacked" Rosemary Geraghty "on a personal level" because she is LGBT whereas I took issues with others over "opinions". I submit that Terzo's reading comprehension skills leave something to be desired. My remarks in the previous post state that her picture indicates "where she stands on the mortal sin of homosexual conduct". Now doesn't "where she stands" seem to smack of opinion? However, it's also clear in the comments on Terzo's post that yes indeed, Geraghty does engage in that mortally sinful conduct. "Conduct" and "opnion" are fair topics for discussion.
Notice though, how Terzo is trying to frame the matter as though I'm attacking Geraghty as a person. This speaks of a tendency of gays to derive their identities from their perversions. Why else do we see all these "gay pride" parades? Terzo does admit that reminders such as mine might "hurt a little". That's called the pricking of the conscience. They know deep down, whether or not they admit it to themselves, that their actions are wrong. On the other hand, I've no problem being called "right wing nut" for I know that I'm speaking the truth.
I also found this thing, again kvetching about my coverage of RI. Check out the comments on both posts. Aimee Murphy posted a few; bear in mind that she is the director of RI and a "contributor" to the New Pro-Life Movement. I ask my fellow pro-lifers if they really want to entangle themselves with this bunch.

Rehumanize International - A Veritable Snake In The Grass
On Facebook I noticed that some pro-life friends of mine, highly respected, "liked" an outfit called Rehumanize International. If you go to that page, you'll see that they oppose abortion, euthanasia, and other intrinsic evils. They also oppose capital punishment and nuclear armament, which are not intrinsic evils. Ladies and gentlemen, when both categories are mish-mashed together in one list, my "seamless garment" red flags start flying. Therefore I did some research. Regrettably my suspicions about RI's moral base are confirmed. Notice that there are intrinsic, anti-life evils that they don't list: contraception, homosexual lifestyle, attacks on marriage and family.
