Where Have You Gone Sociology?
Where Do You Get Your TV News - CNN, Fox or EWTN?
EWTN: Live Truth, Live Catholic
People want to know what news station you watch, especially people who think they are liberals, so as to argue. Fanatic liberals love to argue, as psychologically and subconsciously they have a deep-seated doubt in their illogic. It goes against everything they were taught if taught before the 1980s. One case in point: ever since I could remember, the Democratic party was against the hiring of illegal immigrants – from Lyndon Johnson to Cesar Chavez. It was an affront to Americans. It was capitalism lowering the wages of American workers and keeping them from their rightly due employment. An abuse of big business, big agriculture and capitalism in general. Now they are for it. Disconnects like these borders on a psycho-neurotic condition known as cognitive dissonance. It is rampant and there’s a hundred examples of these liberal disconnects and turn-a-rounds. Now to the case in point - the current social unrest promulgated by liberal ideology and policies and the presentation by the TV news station I do watch - EWTN, the Eternal Word Television Network. This is the station in service to the Roman Catholic community founded by Mother Angelica in 1981.
So, in terms of current issues, let’s see what EWTN reported. Especially with regard to BLM, and federal government policy. With regard to BLM, EWTN news programs have invited various Afro American leaders, ministers and priests to discuss the aims of BLM. I believe they were the first news organization to do so. These guests have pointed out that BLM is a Marxist/Leninist organization funded by outside sources, bent on social disruption and discord, so as to create chaos and calling for the government to eliminate President Trump and take over the United States. They are for the break-up of the nuclear family [#1 cause of Black/white inequities, not racism], pro-abortion, for removing and replacing God from our culture, and to foster the LGBTQ agenda. It is so stated by its founders and leaders, not my nor EWTN words.
With regard to government policy, EWTN guests have noted that our current administration and the leftist wing of the party’s intention to create political and economic problems for the country. Discord between local and state, state and federal, local and federal intentions are heightened, stretching our federalist system to a breaking point. Why not leave the decision of abortion to the states? Rather, the left prefers one government, the bureaucratic state: legislative, executive, judicial, all-inclusive under one governing body. So no, keep that in the hands of the feds. Does the Soviet Union sound familiar? Sociologists for decades have indicated that communism would or could come to America in every way but in name only. Just don’t use that name.
Anne Hendershott, author of The Politics of Deviance and Bill Donahue, author of Common Sense Catholicism are Catholic sociologists and occasional visitors to EWTN. They have indicated the purposeful influence toward moral confusion the left has perpetrated upon America and the slow growth of big government as solution to any of these social and political problems. So let's just call this excessive administrative growth in previous Democratic administrations propaganda and control. The clearest example of that is the collusion between media and government, a propaganda machine similar to the CNN, MSNBC vortex, not unlike the Soviet Union, Communist China, No. Korea, Cuba, Vietnam, etc. Portrayed in films and books like ‘Fahrenheit 451’ & ‘1984’, Marxism collides with almost every principle of western civilization and American life - traditional liberalism. Well, as the attack on our sovereignty, capitalism and Christian morality was the hallmark of the Obama administration, many of his followers, CNN, BLM and WHO - World Health Organization have followed suit. But Marxism fails everywhere. Our way - not perfect, but it is better !
My grandchildren are Baptists but not practicing Baptists. They watch CNN. When I tell them the above views, they are astonished that they never heard of such things. These are but a few examples of the presentation of news, special documentaries and interviews I have witnessed on EWTN. No, I don’t get my news from CNN or Fox but rather EWTN, the informational programs in line with Catholic church. Why? Because of the ESPN motto – ‘Live truth, live Catholic’.
