On first reading, I thought that said he should refrain from Communism. *giggle*
Um, not to jump on the RC church, but why weren’t the pro-death people kicked out of the church long ago? Does the Pope mean what he says or not? (Note: the protestant churches don’t do such a hot job on church discipline either, but that doesn’t excuse anybody.)
As for a policitian saying they are personally opposed to abortion but allow for a pro-choice position, that is just plain creepy. The only reason to be pro-life is that you believe abortion is murder, so what these people are really saying is, “I personally oppose murder, but it’s OK if other people approve of or want to commit murder.”
I had to laugh when the MSM claimed on Saturday that Biden’s Catholicism was a big plus for the Obama ticket. So, dumb, they couldn’t even acknowledge that Biden’s pro-abortion stance would become a big negative for Catholics.
Has anyone rought up the fact that abortion is racist? The black population is 11%; yet 1/3 of all abortions are by black women. A whole generation of blacks - Jackie Robinsons, Thomas Sowells, Clarence Thomases, all destroyed. Blacks killing blacks.
The pro-aborts have a litmus test... they won’t consider approving a SC justice unless they are pro death (only for the unborn, not criminals). Yet they accuse us of having a litmus test. I hope every bishop in every diocese comes out strongly against these “Catholics”
...but alas he was able to receive the Eucharist yesterday as he has every Sunday.
Scandal.
Now I’m waiting for the Archbishops of Chicago and DC to join in this statement.>s
I've always been jealous of Denver after spending an evening with Bishop Chaput at a Kateri conference. A truly great man.
This is not just a test of Catholics voting (NOT) for the Obama-Biden ticket, but even moreso...
This is a test of the American Council of Bishops and how effective (NOT) they are going to be in the face of CLEAR Catholic teaching and this Pope’s strong psition on it.
In the end, I expect the Pope and the Bishop’s to fold their tent and allow Pelosi, Biden, Kerry, etc. to receive communion.
Meanwhile, Catholic Democrats continue to cherry pick and equate abortion (an intrinsic evil) with war and detah penalty (which the Catholic Church has made clear is not an INTRINSIC evil).
These politicians should go join the Anglicans (or Episcopalians) where they are soft on abortion, homosexuality, celibacy, etc...
