Russell Shaw on clericalism (Utter Muttering)

Thu, 08 May 2008 02:59:00 GMT

Russell Shaw has an excellent article at Inside Catholic on clericalism in the Church. The reason it's good is that it doesn't take just one side or the other but explores it and, as one could expect, finds that the truth is "in the middle". One of my favorite quotes is this: Not only that, one-dimensional emphasis in official Church circles on "lay ministry" is at the expense of time and energy that...

Talkin’ about clericalism (Charlotte was Both)

Wed, 07 May 2008 12:58:03 GMT

Over at Inside Catholic, Russell Shaw has an article about clericalism. The indication is that it is the first of many, which is good, because the article doesn't exactly confront clericalism directly, but does an end run via the growth of ecclesial lay ministry. Clericalism, however, is not an affirmation of these sacred realities but a [...]

So That's What's Wrong with the American Church (Happy Catholic)

Tue, 06 May 2008 16:27:00 GMT

A good article from Russell Shaw about the problem of clericalism in the Church . He does define it partway into the article, but for those who, like me, haven't got a clue I will provide the definition that broke the article open for me: Main Entry: cler·i·cal·ism Pronunciation: \ˈkler-i-kə-ˌli-zəm, ˈkle-ri-\ Function: noun Date: 1864 : a policy of maintaining or increasing the power...

On Clericalism---and Consequences (Dad29)

Thu, 17 Apr 2008 17:47:00 GMT

Russell Shaw defines it neatly. “By clericalism I mean an elitist mindset, together with structures and patterns of behavior corresponding to it, which takes it for granted that clerics – in the Catholic context, mainly bishops and priests – are intrinsically superior to the other members of the Church and deserve automatic deference. Passivity and dependence are the laity’s lot.” It...

Take care - blogging can kill you (GJ)

Tue, 08 Apr 2008 20:50:00 GMT

Russell Shaw was a prolific blogger on technology subjects. I say "was" because, sadly, Roger died of a heart attack a few weeks ago at the age of 60. Marc Orchant , a blogger with the publishing giants ZDNet also passed away recently at just 50 years old, also from a heart attack. The similarity between these two men and their untimely deaths has not passed the mainstream media unnoticed....

Mon, 07 Apr 2008 20:20:28 GMT

Matt Richtel’s New York Times article about the heavy stress of making a living as a blogger is not about the blogger life at all. It is about the life of a freelance journalist, which often sits at the bottom a very shallow barrel in terms of journalist compensation. Russell Shaw, our much missed colleague on [...]
