You don't have to be Catholic to see that the bishops aren't matching their words to their actions. In their own voting guide, they say that abortion is the "pre-eminent issue." If so... where are they when it is a major platform and priority for the Democratic Party?

They're against abortion? Great! Abortion isn't running for office... the Democrats are... and they have vowed to make abortion the law of the land.

Catholics are 20% of the voting population... the single greatest voting block. Yet, their priorities are ignored because their vote is evenly divided down the middle. You are living in a nearly post-Christian America (like Europe) due to the negligence of the bishops.

Trump is a sinner? Find me someone who isn't! This isn't about the Church joining forces with Trump or the GOP... that would be foolish beyond measure. However, they should not remain silent when actual and real evil is on the agenda of a major political party.

Pray that the bishops find their voice to denounce evil in public policy. Please share this letter with everyone... Catholic, Protestant, other... and all levels of clergy. Encourage them to find their voice to back up the pre-eminence of this issue.

Agreed. The American bishops and priests need to speak out more against the evils of abortion and transgenderism. They don't have to mention political parties to get that message across.

Sadly, they are mostly silent.
