Joseph Fred Naumann

thumb|Joseph Fred Naumann in 2011 Joseph Fred Naumann (June 4, 1949 –) is an American prelate of the Catholic Church who served as the Archbishop of the Archdiocese of Kansas City in Kansas. Quotes I think that with a lot of these institutions, those that have this different worldview have been shrewd, in a sense, in trying to take them over in terms of leadership and then to reorient them to form young people in ways that are contrary. It's kind of contrary, some of the reaction we’ve gotten is almost like, 'How could you dare do this?' It's as if not only do they have a right to their own vision of the human person and marriage and family life, but we have an obligation to turn our young people over to them to be formed in these values. We’re going to have to be much more vigilant as Christians and as Catholics about with whom we partner and who we invite in, particularly with regard to the formation of our young people. Archbishop says Girl Scouts embody ‘hostile secular culture’ (8 May 2017) I'd also like to say to our priests: we can't fail to talk to our people about these real sins that affect the lives of our people. If we talk about sins they don't commit, of what good is that?
