The American RCC is dead. What we see now is the twitching of the corpse as rigor mortis sets in.

The Catholic Church helped Nazis escape Europe, why wouldn’t they give baby killers a pass?
Is any evil but powerful leftist ever excommunicated? I doubt Nancy Pelosi would be excommunicated if she performed an illicit public abortion by herself.
Please read the history of
“the Church”. The Pope’s position was sold once upon a time and things haven’t changed much.
The CC will sell Cuomo an indulgence and that will be that. No problem.
Isn’t it all about money? Around the third century didn’t the scam start with selling indulgences to fill the coffers of the new church? I went to a Catholic funeral a few weeks ago and there was this money box thing under a bunch of candles and was told people pay to light a candle for some reason. (Would that be considered an indulgence?) And the deceased’s family was shaken down for money for some other reason — maybe to get a better seat in Heaven or something. (I don’t know why.) Money, money, money.
Bottom line, if Cuomo has has money — which he does, and the church wants it — which it does, and Dolan represents the church, the relationship will continue. As Rush says, “Follow the money.”
Does the Catholic church ever excommunicate anyone any more?
