Neo-Catholicism - Politics

Politics

The term "Neo-Catholics", when used to describe a subset of Catholics who subscribe to a political ideology, refers to Catholics who align with the political ideologies of Americanism and/or Neo-Conservatism. Traditionalist Catholics often clash with Neo-Catholics politically because many traditionalist Catholics subscribe to the ideologies of Monarchism, Paleo-Conservatism, and/or Distributionism, and other groups of Catholics clash with Neo-Catholics because of their subscription to Liberalism or other political ideologies.

Famous quotes containing the word politics:

    Beware the politically obsessed. They are often bright and interesting, but they have something missing in their natures; there is a hole, an empty place, and they use politics to fill it up. It leaves them somehow misshapen.
    Peggy Noonan (b. 1950)

    Politics is not an end, but a means. It is not a product, but a process. It is the art of government. Like other values it has its counterfeits. So much emphasis has been placed upon the false that the significance of the true has been obscured and politics has come to convey the meaning of crafty and cunning selfishness, instead of candid and sincere service.
    Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)

    I am in politics because of the conflict between good and evil, and I believe that in the end good will triumph.
    Margaret Thatcher (b. 1925)
