PopeWatch: Teilhard de Chardin
Donald R. McClarey
Cradle Catholic. Active in the pro-life movement since 1973. Father of three, one in Heaven, and happily married for 41 years. Small town lawyer and amateur historian. Former president of the board of directors of the local crisis pregnancy center for a decade.
To see who his heroes are, it’s no surprise he has not spoken out on the deaths the vaccines have caused.
Have not read him but someone said he was a great Nazi fan. Very fitting
Even Pope Benedict 16 had good things to say about this man … Apparently B16 liked some Cosmic Living host gibberish he polluted perfectly good paper with back in the day. One thing I’ve noticed about progressives in the Catholic Church: Being misunderstood is the objective. They speak in vagaries and ambiguities for the purpose of corrupting the deposit of truth. It’s always been that way. The few mentions of deaconesses in the writings of the early church are too ambiguous to understand, and therefore too vague to have been condemned at the time … They survived (or were preserved) and today continue to fuel the woman’s ordination uproar.
Teilhard fanboys tend to skip over his love of eugenics.
Which really can’t be separated from his evolutionist so-called theology.
Here is a damning selection of quotes, including a defense of Nazi experiments at Dachau. The man’s theology was grounded in a profound malevolence.

Even Archbishop Sheen endorsed Chardin, in his book “Footprints in a Darkened Forest,” 1967, comparing him to Sts. John of the Cross and Teresa of Avila. Fulton, weren’t you paying attention?
Even Homer nods and Bishop Sheen had a pretty poor batting average in the sixties where he went along with far too much of the craziness.
In my opinion, he rhapsodizes getting swept up in the word love, as do modernists in general. (We are all tainted by it to a certain decree. We are too impressionable to not take on some of the stink of our environment.)
But this almost intangible conjecture on love distracts from the solid building of Sacred Tradition and solid Truth. Maybe it gets embraced because it is “fresh” or “with it” or “warm.”
I can get all that from a bistro dessert, so just give me the solid unalterable Word of God and keep the fuzzy nonsense.
I’m with TBO … Give me the thick. juicy steak of Tradition over this Jesuit’s trendy cotton candy theology that gets one all excited and energetic when tasted, but dissolves into nothingness when you bite into it. Even if all that new age mumbo jumbo were actually true, would knowing it help me get to heaven? Nope. It’s all for appearances. You look impressive holding it, but in reality, it’s just a puffed-up sugar cube.
