I encourage all my readers to pray for the Bishops of the Catholic Church who have been singled out by Americans United. AU simply wants to silence the Church and they must not succeed.

While they are at it, maybe they could investigate -—holes United too.

Bring it on.

The Catholic Church represents one of the biggest voting blocks in the country.

It’s one thing to disagree with the church.

It’s quite another to persecute it.

If they start persecuting the Catholic Church, her children will rise to defend her.

How about Trinity United Church in Illinios? Let’s start investigating there!

IRS traditionally audits the complainants as well. The Commissioner should be anonymously reminded of the need to make sure AU has not come to the table with dirty hands.

It may be time for the Church to cleanse itself of members who claim to be faithful Catholics, reduce expenses and not worry about lost donations. Abortionists aren't real Catholics - get rid of them. Publicly dismiss pro abortion politicians and activists - let Gaia have them!

How about this line of defense: AU is seeking to prevent the Catholic church from speaking about moral issues. This is a violation of the free exercise of religion. And, (here’s the kicker) they are conspiring to do this by repeatedly using lawsuits to harass the church. This is a conspiracy to deny the leaders of this church their civil rights. Call it what it is.

In a few years of the Obama thugs running things Christians in the US will only be slightly better off than Christians in Mosel.

> You are sooooooo right...

And I’m not even a Catholic!

I’m an Evangelical Christian with a moral perspective congruent to that formally stated by the Catholich Church.

Catholics will not stand alone in facing this...
