Catholic Discordance : Neoconservatism vs. the Field Hospital Church of Pope Francis
2022 Catholic Media Association honorable mention Pope Francis2022 Catholic Media Association honorable mention in English translation editionOne element of the church that Pope Francis was elected to lead in 2013 was an ideology that might be called the “American” model of Catholicism—the troubling result of efforts by intellectuals like Michael Novak, George Weigel, and Richard John Neuhaus to remake Catholicism into both a culture war colossus and a prop for ascendant capitalism. After laying the groundwork during the 1980s and armed with a selective and manipulative reading of Pope John Paul II’s 1991 encyclical Centesimus Annus, these neoconservative commentators established themselves as authoritative Catholic voices throughout the 1990s, viewing every question through a liberal-conservative ecclesial-political lens.The movement morphed further after the 9/11 terror attacks into a startling amalgamation of theocratic convictions, which led to the troubling theo-populism we see today. The election of the Latin American pope represented a mortal threat to all of this, and a poisonous backlash was inevitable, bringing us to the brink of a true “American schism.” This is the drama of today’s Catholic Church.In Catholic Discordance: Neoconservatism vs. the Field Hospital Church of Pope Francis, Massimo Borghesi—who masterfully unveiled the pope’s own intellectual development in his The Mind of Pope Francis—analyzes the origins of today’s Catholic neoconservative movement and its clash with the church that Francis understands as a “field hospital” for a fragmented world.

The Quiet Revolution of Pope Francis : A Synodal Catholic Church in Ireland?
Pope Francis wants to bring about a quiet revolution within the Catholic Church.He wants a reformed church in which the `sense of the faithful’, the instinct of baptised men and women, is given a role in the formation and reception of church teaching and governance.The model is one of Jesus conversing with his male and female disciples in Palestine – a walking together of the People of God, a `synodal’ church. Irish Jesuit theologian Gerry O’Hanlon examines this ecclesiological project of Francis and the new roles within it of pope and bishops, theologians, and all the baptised.He considers the Pope's strategy of a changed ecclesial structure that would out-live his own pontificate. Francis advocates a critical openness to contemporary culture, a culture of consultation and open debate, and communal discernment practised at every level of `an entirely synodal church'.O’Hanlon argues that this project offers new hope of a better reading of the `signs of the times’ by the Catholic Church, not least in areas of sexuality of gender. The author applies this analysis to our situation in Ireland and suggests that whatever about the desirable spiritual renewal which a papal visit may inspire, it is to be hoped that the more lasting long-term effects might be the realisation of a synodal Irish Catholic Church.

Pope Francis the Legacy of Vatican 11
Professor Echeverria does a thorough job of drawing from the pre-papal writings of Jorge Mario Bergoglio and the man's current papal writings, talks, and sermons (notably Amoris Laetitia, Laudato Si', The Name of God is Mercy, Veritatis Gaudium, and through Christus Vivit) to discover and document the continuity in thought Francis has with the councils. Echeverria compares Francis's discourse with that of his papal predecessors (John Paul II, Bendict XIV, and Paul VI) in the era since Vatican II. He draws heavily on the documents of Vatican II and the theology of doctrinal development stemming from the First Vatican Council and embraced by Vatican II, e.g. Leo XIII and Pius XI. Not left out is the modern ecumenical movement from both the Reformed (Berkouwer et al) and Catholic (Rahner, Balthassar, Mauritain, Kasper, et al) side. This is Echeverria's second edition, revising (with new insight from Francis's voluminous writings through April of 2019) and expanding (almost twice the size) the best-selling book introduced four years previously.

Which glasses for presbyopia?
For presbyopia, bifocal or progressive lenses are commonly recommended. Bifocal lenses have two distinct areas for near and distance vision, while progressive lenses have a seamless transition between the two. Both options can help individuals with presbyopia see clearly at different distances without needing to switch between multiple pairs of glasses. It is important to consult with an eye care professional to determine the best type of glasses for your specific needs and lifestyle.
-
When does presbyopia start?
Presbyopia typically starts to become noticeable around the age of 40, but it can vary from person to person. It is a natural part of aging and is caused by the hardening of the lens in the eye, making it more difficult to focus on close objects. As we get older, the muscles that control the shape of the lens also weaken, contributing to the development of presbyopia.
-
How quickly does presbyopia worsen?
Presbyopia typically worsens gradually over time, starting around the age of 40. The rate at which presbyopia worsens can vary from person to person, but most individuals will experience a noticeable decline in near vision over the course of several years. As the eye's lens loses flexibility, the need for reading glasses or other corrective measures may become more frequent as presbyopia progresses. Regular eye exams can help monitor the progression of presbyopia and ensure appropriate adjustments to corrective lenses.
-
What is normal with presbyopia?
Presbyopia is a normal age-related condition that affects the ability of the eye to focus on close objects. It typically becomes noticeable around the age of 40 and is a result of the natural aging process of the eye. As the eye's lens becomes less flexible, it becomes more difficult to focus on close-up objects, leading to the need for reading glasses or other corrective measures. This condition is a normal part of the aging process and is experienced by the majority of people as they get older.

Church Going Gone : a biography of religion, doubt, and faith
In this colourful memoir, from 1950’s childhood to the COVID crisis, Brian Mountford describes his life as a priest, which has spanned a period of immense social change and seen the secularisation of Britain to the point where 52% of the population say they have ‘no religion’.Opening with a vibrant account of London in the Sixties, he moves to Cambridge college life in the Seventies, Suburbia in the Eighties, and thirty years as Vicar of the ‘most visited parish church in England’, the University Church, Oxford.Rich in humour and anecdote, he unpacks his liberal theological ideas on the way, addressing questions such as God, the meaning of life, sexual ethics, and the relationship between doubt and faith.A central idea is that the abandonment of organised religion has not eradicated spiritual questioning and, following Philip Larkin’s poem Church Going, from which the book takes its title, people of all ages are forever ‘surprising/A hunger in (themselves) to be more serious.’ Both the story and the essay content will fascinate many, many more people than actually go to church.

Reclaiming American Catholicism : Faith, Politics, and the Future of the Catholic Church
A rich portrait of American Catholicism at a crossroads between crisis and opportunityThe most vocal leaders in the US Catholic hierarchy today embrace a culture-war Catholicism that pits them against the pastoral priorities of Pope Francis and many Catholics in the pews. Reclaiming American Catholicism makes the argument that recalibrating the Church's engagement with politics and public life is vital for both the Church and the country.Gehring illuminates the Church that Pope Francis envisions—"bruised, hurting and dirty because it has been out on the streets"—through stories of Catholic advocates working on the border, young Catholics who question Church teachings but are active in social justice campaigns, LGBTQ+ Catholics within a Church that does not accept their full humanity, and seminarians who work in the fields with migrants as part of their religious formation. This book offers living examples of the pastoral and prophetic Catholicism driving systemic grassroots reform and renewal.

How does nearsightedness compensate for presbyopia?
Nearsightedness, also known as myopia, can compensate for presbyopia by allowing the individual to see nearby objects clearly without the need for reading glasses. This is because nearsighted individuals have difficulty seeing distant objects clearly, but their ability to focus on close-up objects is relatively unaffected. As a result, they may not experience as much difficulty with close-up tasks as someone with normal vision or farsightedness. However, it's important to note that nearsightedness does not fully compensate for presbyopia, and individuals with both conditions may still require reading glasses for certain tasks.
-
Which glasses for nearsightedness and presbyopia?
For nearsightedness, concave lenses are typically used to correct the vision by helping focus light directly onto the retina. For presbyopia, convex lenses are usually prescribed to help with close-up vision. In some cases, bifocal or progressive lenses may be recommended for individuals who have both nearsightedness and presbyopia. It is important to consult with an eye care professional to determine the best type of glasses for your specific vision needs.

What is the difference between farsightedness and presbyopia?
Farsightedness, also known as hyperopia, is a refractive error where distant objects can be seen clearly, but close-up objects appear blurry. This occurs when the eyeball is too short or the cornea has too little curvature, causing light to focus behind the retina instead of directly on it. Presbyopia, on the other hand, is an age-related condition where the lens of the eye becomes less flexible, making it difficult to focus on close-up objects. While farsightedness can affect people of all ages, presbyopia typically begins to develop around the age of 40 and is a natural part of the aging process.
