I have several reasons for going on as I do in regard to Paragraph 841 of the CCC.

Cardinal Burke gets his talking points here.
See for yourself here and here. OK. Maybe not. But I can dream. They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. He sure does sound, how do you say, familiar: The ultimate goal of Islam is world conquest and the “supine” West is only helping it achieve that aim, a senior cardinal has said. …
