No it doesn’t require them to change their name as they’re not providing theology or doctrine, but news stories concerning Catholics.

Yes it does. Please read this article. They were specifically ordered by Bishop Helmsing in 1968 to remove “Catholic” from their name.
Bishop Finn reminds his readers that in 1968 his predecessor, Bishop Charles Helmsing, directed the editors of the Reporter to remove the word “Catholic” from the title of their publication. The newspaper’s editors refused. Bishop Finn says: “From my perspective, NCR’s positions against authentic Church teaching and leadership have not changed trajectory in the intervening decades.”

It’s just another article from Bishop Flinn, telling them to stop advertising themselves as a Catholic Publication.

NCR says they are not part of the Catholic Church but an independent source of information, so are not under his authority.

Agree or not, it isn’t about the subject of the thread at this point.

Church Militant could have said the same thing when they were ordered to change their name from “Real Catholic TV”

🤷‍♂️

Truth is, the National Catholic Reporter is the “liberal/modernist” version of Church Militant.

The two are mirror opposites of each other.

no. They hold very controversial views that can be against the interests of the Church, but they are not outside the Church.

The professor who said that did it because he don’t like their views.
 
Yeah perhaps they could’ve, but the problem is that Michael Voris had some controversy over his homosexual affairs, after being hostile toward homosexuals on Real Catholic Radio

That seem to divert the situation where they had no choice but change the name
 
If the professor doesn’t say the same thing about the National Catholic Reporter, then you should be very suspicious of your professor.

If he/she agrees that the National Catholic Reporter is also “schismatic” then you might be ok.

NOTE: Please do not confuse the National Catholic Reporter with the orthodox National Catholic Register.

The idea that you even made this statement is troubling, and evidence that something is missing. If this is the fruit of Michael Voris, I am glad I do not watch him much. I am okay with the idea that his more extreme views are within what is allowable by the Church, but he is not the Church. His slant, leaning, or whatever you call it, isn’t the only orthodox one, and progressives in the Church may be equally orthodox.

Every time I want to cut this sort of ministry some slack, the fruit of its partisan divisiveness rears its ugly head.

He has already explained he hasn t said that and that in fact he has baptized hundreds.

I searched for the word “define” (as in define what a schism is) in the thread and it didn’t pop up. There were too many sub threads to try and follow the discussion, but here is a thought.

If you have group A, that agrees with the 2000 year old teachings of the church. And you have group B, which agrees with the opposite teachings that have just become “popular” for the last 30 years (or 30 minutes), the schismatic group, by definition, is group B.

My confessor told me to check out Church Militant (CM). I’m glad I did. Some say ignorance is bliss. The laity and the clergy in the book of Ezekiel thought the same thing. Ignorance will only lead us to destruction.

It saddens me that the Church is going through what it is going through, but I am thankful for what CM is doing in exposing the corruption in the clergy and NGOs affiliated with them.

As you made the initial accusation, is there any evidence that bishop never baptized anyone?
 
Wther the man is schismatic nor not, I do not know. What I do know is that his presentations seem devoid of love.

What is Christian about that?
 
That Bishop was right on point. CATHOLOCISM is at its worst when it perceives it’s message as militant. The symbol of our faith is a forgiving victim. Unlike other “gods” in other religions that seek sacrifice to appease their hunger, ours is actually food that we eat. The Lamb of God that takes away the sins of the world does not jibe with Militant

The phrase “The Church Militant” is in fact used by the Church: you’re a part of it. It is the Church on earth, and is one of three parts of the Church: “The Church Suffering”, which is made of those in purgatory, and “The Church Triumphant”, which is made of those in heaven.

It is Catholic.
