...is apparenly not coming without a great, big fight, if it comes at all.
The Knights of Columbus in New Haven is a GREAT organization, however, the majority of its paid staff is LIBERAL and unionized.
This MIGHT wake up the K of C and the liberal Catholics as to why the “religious right” does NOT trust our government!
There are no words. Obama must go. It’s that simple.
Most of your congregation probably voted for these people, and regardless what happens with this particular issue, they’ll probably vote for them again, or whatever other liberals are up for election...and though it pains me somewhat to say this since I was raised Roman Catholic, you can go jump in a lake. You get no sympathy from me.
Godspeed Bishops Lori.
And let this be a lesson to other denominations who operate under a similar church structure (Diocese overseen by bishops)
They WILL come after your church too.
I do believe we have found another gay in an important government position.
This isn’t a Catholic issue - it’s a Constitutional issue. We all need to be on the same side on this fight.

This is also no better time than I can think of for ALL churches to not sign on to government faith based programs. The ones signed on to such should get out NOW! That will be the next tool used for control.
I’m very impressed that the bishop is taking firm steps to fight back. The interesting thing is that dictators will often back off if challenged, particularly if it happens fairly early in their reign. I think Bp Lori may at least buy us some time.
I was disappointed by all the anti-Catholic comments on this thread and I can’t imagine what provoked them, since there’s certainly nothing to criticize in Bp Lori’s actions.
Here is “The coming fascism in the Age of Obama” ping!

Ping! Ping! Ping!
and yet how many of those Catholics vote for Democrats without hesitation?
how many democrats in Conn. voted for Dodd?
how many decomcrat congressmen?
Sotomayer will find the priests guildy due their lack of laaaateeeno womanliness.
Bishop Lori is young and energetic enough to see this to a favorable conclusion for American Catholics along with all the faithful in Christ.
The fact that he is a powerful and capable religious leader (never mind that he is Catholic) should be a clear shining political danger warning to all religious Americans, including Catholic bashers and anyone who read their Bibles.
Remove the speck from your own eyes before judging this spiritual man of Christ. Excerpt for the Catholic bashers:
In Luke 6:37, the Bible says, "Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven."Nobody wants to be judged themselves, so you need to extend the same courtesy to others. As you view others with compassion instead of judgment, you are better able to help others and bring your life into better alignment with God's plans.
Let's unify in Christ + and the land of freedom that we have inherited from God.
