I do not agree.
I do not want Bishops in the pulpit railing against (or for) political leaders. The Church has survived 2000 years by understanding the fact that tyrants, dictators, kings and Presidents all come and go.
Americans and Catholics should be smart enough to put 2+2 together when their Magisterium clearly says: “abortion is intrinsically evil, do not vote for those who promote abortion.”
I don’t know about you, but I heard this and the call for “religious liberty” loud and clear for several months prior to the election.
If the individual refuses to see and hear and think, then the stain is on their own soul.
Ignore the blog pimp. A couple of weeks ago he was spitting mad, claiming that "the vast majority of Evangelicals stayed home on Election Day", assigning them blame for Obama's re-election because "they made a conscious decision to allow our Marxist enemy to continue ruining our lives rather than have Mormon Mitt Romney as our president....Evangelicals’ hatred of Romney burns so brightly it blinded them".
This same bloviator, on his profile page claims credit for "changing the course of the Pataki Coumo race in 1994 and helping to beat Kerry with Catholics Against Kerry in 2004." My guess is that he's mad at himself for failing to single-handedly get Romney elected in 2012, and he's going to blame everyone but himself for Romney's loss, to dilute the feelings of self-guilt.
I don’t get why some people want the Catholic Church to become an arm of the Republican Party.
I agree that the Church needs to do some sorely needing housekeeping, enforce orthodoxy and purge elements that are in defiance to its teachings.
However, it shouldn’t neglect its duties to Christ because the RNC is incompetent and can’t win elections on its own.
There are none so blind that will not see, and none so deaf that will not hear.
