A faith is something you die for, a doctrine is something you kill for. There is all the difference in the world.

How can you be an atheist and have an ideology to go with it? To be an atheist is to be free of some areas of belief. I don't see how that can become an ideology.

Having a clear faith, based on the creed of the church is often labeled today as fundamentalism. Whereas relativism, which is letting oneself be tossed and swept along by every wind of teaching, look like the only attitude acceptable to today's standards.

Religion and philosophy are to be preserved distinct. We are not to introduce divine revelations into philosophy, nor philosophical opinions into religion.

As a Christian, there is no other part of the New Right ideology that concerns me more than its self-serving misuse of religious faith.

Unity in faith is theocracy; unity in politics is fascism.

How can you tell when a political ideology has become the equivalent of a religion?

Ideology has consequences.

Although, this is often used with negative connotations, I see ideology as an inherent part of culture.

The facts tell us that no religious Faith releases - or ever has released at any moment in History - a higher degree of warmth, a more intense dynamism of unification than the Christianity of our own day - and the more Catholic it is, the truer my words.
