i guess i don’t see preaching against sin as judging. how many Catholics believe that abortion and gay marriage are perfectly ok, the church needs to change with the times yada yada. LOTS. who is going to tell them that it’s SIN?

If they crack open a Bible, the Word is crystal clear about sin. This short attention span theater we live in doesn’t retain anything from sound bites anyway.

Catholics do not crack open Bibles, you know that! and they are dependent on the homily to direct them. Falls Churcher leftwing Catholics would walk out of St James when Father DeCelles would talk about the sin of abortion. i want to know how hobbes thinks that constituency is going to be made to see the light when we are preaching social justice and washing the feet of muslim girls.

rank and file Catholics, no. but the leftist clergy will seize on this to provide cover for what they have focused on all along-- social justice, with not a word to spare for aborted babies.

Obama can't dance, not a skosh
Besides being "Left," he's quite gauche.
He lacks many a skill,
Yet he'll probably kill
The American dream - that's no sh__

Google Pope Francis and American magazine interview......all of liberal land is claiming him as a liberal. Alarming. Haven’t finished the article in question yet. Got sidetracked, but it’s still up on my browser, I will get to it.

My former Bishop, Matthew Clark, witnessed gay “unions” inside his own diocese church. The Vatican called him out on it. He had to back away from them or lose his coveted position in the church. He backed away causing a schism that lost us many souls. A priest and nun formed a new church taking with them all the faithful they could. So much for that approach. Give an inch and you lose all credibility...it is a fine line. Pope Francis will learn the hard way.

So even though that whore that they quoted knew he was engaged she wants to try to seduce him into giving up his morals. How disgusting of her.

Our young new priest is fighting Satan tooth and nail. No mollycoddling anyone from him.

i see no good to come from soft-pedaling sin. as xshub said, any person or institution who is not inherently conservative, will BECOME liberal over time.

As if no other woman on earth is sexy enough to make him drop his values..... only that stupid slut. How is she any different from the dogs in the ghetto having babies with random men? They want to prove to the other dogs that they are “wanted” by the various men who move from woman to woman too.

yes and as if his feelings for his girlfriend are not powerful enough to make him want to drop his morals, but HER moves/looks etc will provide the inducement.
