No comment. Have at it.

[LdSentinal]

RIP. He chose the wrong party.

[NewHampshireDuo]

I guess Deval won't be able to appoint him to a post in his administration.

[spyone]

Mass. voters never cease to astound me.

[Cicero]

I wouldn't wish damnation on anyone.

Drinan did much to further the cause of abortion. He also counseled politicians like Mario Cuomo and taught them that it was OK to be Catholic and support abortion. "I am personally opposed to abortion, BUT . . . ."

As far as I could see, he was as unrepentent as ever in his recent pronouncements. I hope he had some sort of deathbed conversion experience. Let God sort it out.

[Little Bill]

He fries in the 7th bolga of hell, false councilors.

[A.A. Cunningham]

I'll bet that that was one interesting particular judgment.

[madprof98]

Just days ago, Drinan managed to say the mass celebrating Nancy Pelosi's ascension into the House speakership. Evidently that was the last straw.

[dirtboy]

Our gain. Someone else's loss.

[Gay State Conservative]

Drinan was a Massachusetts Communist who was about as close to being a Catholic as I am to being a brain surgeon.

[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

I saw Jerry Falwell cut him to pieces on some news show many years ago. All Drinan could do was huff and puff.

[SuziQ]

May God have mercy on his soul. He may be introduced to the souls of all those babies whose mothers aborted them because Catholic lawmakers were convinced by Drinan that the "personally opposed, but" stance was acceptable to the Church. These lawmakers are very public about their positions, and Catholics who might have a tenous link to the Church, are confused and are led to believe that abortion must not be that bad, because it's legal and 'Catholic' politicians support it.

[tomcorn]

I don't know how a minister , priest or rabbi could perform his ministerial duties and be a poltician simultaneously.

[Migraine]

Well, all his career, he made what I consider to be wrong assessments and votes; but the only thing that matters now is this: was he born-again?

[LibFreeOrDie]

I have absolutely NO sympathy for Drinan.

I'm glad he's dead.

[Clemenza]

Ping!

[Coleus]

 

Fr. Drinan and Abortion

 

Pray for his soul.

[BlessedBeGod]

Eternal rest.

I would take this as not being a good sign from Heaven for Pelosi.

[ikka]

"Pleased to meet you... hope you guess my name..."

[fieldmarshaldj]

RIP. I hope he repented of some of his positions at the end... :-|

[Tax-chick]

May God have mercy on him. He did a great deal of harm in his life, but so do we all.
