Ping!
Excellent letter.
...but the Dolanites want to be loved.
Clearly, the Cardinal was poorly catechized...
I recently wrote to the priest in charge of Catholic Charities to inform him ,due to the Position taken by Cardinal Dolan I will not be sending a contribution to Catholic Charities.
Good letter.
Except people should be storming Rome, demanding not that Dolan resign as Grand Marshal, but that he resign as Archbishop of New York.
Dolan said that the pro-abortion Governor of New York, David Paterson, was “a Catholic who takes his Christian faith very seriously.”
Dolan said that he would be “uncomfortable” saying that Andrew Cuomo, the pro-abortion Governor of New York living in open concubinage, was “not a Catholic in good standing.”
Dolan praised Michael Sam for “coming out.” “Bravo!”
In private, Dolan is a tyrant and a bully—if the priest he’s talking to isn’t a fellow progressive.
If Bernard Law could be hounded out of Boston, there’s no reason Dolan can’t be hounded out of New York. Dolan is giving scandal just as grave. And, unlike Law, the the press and the courts aren’t going stop him, making it even more imperative that the people run him out of town.
Let’s pray that the letter works.
Well, God answers prayer. So God will let Satan keep putting the screws to His Church until the laity do what Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen said needed to be done :
"Not our Bishops, not our priests and religious. It is up to the people. You have the minds, the eyes, the ears to save the Church".
"Your mission is to see that your priests act like priests, your bishops like bishops, and your religious act like religious."
