I see a strange Catholic church that I didn't convert to... a church that calls itself Catholic but has all but left tradition in the past and has instead taken up something they call "progressive". The progressives in the Catholic church are many, and likewise there are many progressive parishes, convents, and retreat centers. These progressive places (whether a parish, retreat center, or convent) are known for such things as enneagrams, reiki, eco-spirituality (a.k.a. earth spirituality), feminism (calling God "she"), polytheistic meditation (Buddhist, gods, etc; & misuse of the labyrinth in such a way), drumming circles, medicine dolls, public sponsorship of earth spirit retreats that involve paganism). With that said, is the progressive movement the true Catholic Church, and if so, what does that mean for the legitimacy of the Catholic Church?
