Theologically, I am of a "radical-orthodox-traditionalist" bent. I believe strongly in objective truth and the reliability of the Christian Tradition, but I do not think that the conventional attempt to turn truth and tradition into simple rules about "do and don't" is at all successful. See:

I am disenchanted with what has been going on in the Catholic Church over the last forty years, seeing it as a "dumbing down" both of the practice and theory of the faith. I would like to see more honesty and dialogue in the Church, coupled with a confidence that the Gospel is "God's Truth", and rightly appreciated holds the answers to mankind's troubles.
In essence, I think, the Good News is that God wants to be the friend of all men and women, and that it is time we started being each other's friends. See:
