The thing that they’re going to go after us on is “gay marriage.” I was very happy to see that a pastor just refused to confirm a young man who had posted his support for “gay marriage” on his FB page, because the pastor said that the teenager clearly did not either understand or accept the teachings of the Church and thus could not be confirmed. So that’s a good sign that there might be resistance.

But the liberal Catholics have been high-fiving each other since the reelection of Obama because they claim this means the bishops are powerless and were ignored. This may be true, but in many cases, their message didn’t get out there until too late, was ambiguous in some statements (”weigh up the candidates and see which one is more in favor of social justice [Marxism]”) and was often never transmitted or even opposed by an elderly leftist clergy.

We still have time, I think, to fight back, but the window is closing.

There are ways to send this message to Pelosi and Biden. Excommunicate them publicly.

But the Bishops haven’t got the guts to do it.

So Catholics say If they let Pelosi and Biden get away with it, I am free to do as I please also.
