WalterRussellMead reminds the NYTimes and others that their emphasis on the "scandal" and "declining church" stories to push the liberal agenda ignores the reality of the church:
--------------------------------
as the largest non-governmental organization in the world, it’s easy to underestimate what the Church does in terms of promoting international understanding, working for peace in troubled parts of the world, and caring for the poorest of the poor. It is often imperfect in its pursuit of these goals, but it does all of these things in areas where almost nobody else is doing them.
Dealing with the scandals and intrigue in the Vatican is a serious part of the journalistic work that has to be done in covering the conclave. But it’s important to remember that the Church isn’t reducible to Vatican politics. Nor, for Catholics, is it reducible to its human side. For Catholics the church is a divine as well as a human institution, one that God works through to bring peace and justice to the world despite its human failings and weaknesses.
