Ecumenism is the Universal Solvent of Tradition .

The Americanist, John Zmirak, the Barry Lynn of nominal Catholics



A member of the Washington, D.C. and U.S. Supreme Court bar, Lynn earned his law degree from Georgetown University Law Center in 1978. In addition, he received his theology degree from Boston University School of Theology in 1973.




John Zmirak received his B.A. from Yale University in 1986, then his M.F.A. in screenwriting and fiction and his Ph.D. in English in 1996 from Louisiana State University.

Both Mr. Lynn and J. Z. believe in the Americanist heresy of the separation of Church and State and both have publicly supported gay marriage and while one doesn't have the evidence, one can be forgiven for thinking that Mr. Lynn agrees with the Americanist, J.Z. that Catholic Social Teaching is a myth and that Catholic Integralists are like those who advocate Sharia Law.


Both are male, both wear glasses and both support that which was condemned in The Syllabus of Errors:

55. The Church ought to be separated from the .State, and the State from the Church. — Allocution “Acerbissimum,” Sept. 27, 1852.

What are some differences between the two supporters of the separation of Church and State?

J.Z. is shorter, chunkier, and balder than Barry Lynn.

Say, ABS, do you know of any comments that have been deleted at The Stream ?

Yes

Well, what did those comments consist of ?

Facts which prove false the several Americanist claims of the shorter of the two Church-State separationists. 

Like what?

His claim that his rejection of Tradition is jake because the encyclicals whose teaching he rejects were not infallible.

O, you mean that at least one of those encyclicals- covering 175 years of constant Tradition in opposition to Dignatatis Humanae - came with anathema attached?

Yes.

How did you discover that fact?

Mr. James Larson learnt ABS that.

Are you gonna cover that?

Yes, tomorrow.  Because ABS is a trinitarian, he sometimes likes to do things in threes and he thinks that our friend J is deserving of a third post regarding his Americanist claims.

Let's end on a happier note, let's finish with a song.

While not specifically written to depict how J and The Americanists no longer love the Church, she cries when she learns J and The Americanists do not love her anymore...
