Andrew Greeley
 One could say at a dinner party that most Americans are faithful to their spouses, and a loud mouth, semi-inebriated jerk can respond that the conclusion cannot be true because look at all the academics who sleep around at professional meetings. |
| One Hispanic woman... was telling me about her religion, and all she was talking about were the parties, the festivals. |
| People came into the Church in the Roman Empire because the Church was so good-Catholics were so good to one another, and they were so good to pagans, too. High-pressure evangelization strikes me as an attempt to deprive people of their freedom of choice. |
| Practically speaking, your religion is the story you tell about your life. |
| Priest organizations around the country, both local and national, should realize that their membership has a serious image problem and undertake programs to improve it. |
| Religion declined abruptly in England and the Netherlands. It is stagnant in West Germany, and it is flourishing in Poland, Slovakia and Slovenia. I get upset about the sweeping generalization about the decline in religion. Religion is always declining and always reviving. |
| The Catholic imagination is metaphorical or sacramental. It sees God as present in the world. The Protestant imagination, the dialectical imagination, wants to preserve God from the possibility of idolatry by identifying with His creatures. Catholicism has no problem with that. |
| The Catholic men are more upset about women not being able to be priests than are Catholic women. |
| The Catholics we lose-it's almost always over divorce and remarriage, of which problem we have made a real mess. |
| The Church just has not been able to cope with the demands for fairness and equality from women, so they're very angry. |
| The kernel is the belief that God is love and, in Catholicism, God's love is present in the world. It is in the sacraments, in the Eucharist, in our families, in our friends, in our neighborhood, and forgiveness in the touch of a friendly hand, in a rediscovered love God is there. |
| The laity, who pay the bills, have a right to high quality priestly service, in strict commutative justice with the obligation of restitution. So too does the Lord Jesus, whom we purport to represent. |
| The leadership blighted the hopes of my generation of priests, a small fact doubtless from their viewpoint. What right did we have to hope anyway? But in their rigidity, they created the climate of insensitivity... God forgive them for losing their nerve. |
| The leadership lost its nerve. Instead of taking the lead in the reform movement... they pulled the plug on it. They tried and are still trying to return the church to the dry ice of the previous century and a half. |
| The men who were running the church in the late '60s and '70s panicked when they saw the chaos, which developed after the council. The relatively modest changes of those years thawed the ice in which Catholicism had been frozen since the French Revolution. |
