| Over 100 Bishops Have Spoken Out on Priority of Life Issues Posted on October 28, 2008, 11:59 AM | Deal W. Hudson |
In whose judgment?
Oops
Somehow 130 out of 197 Bishops disagree with these CINOs.
I’m a practicing Catholic. I’m also a catechist of 5th graders in my parish.
There is, and has been, a lot of soft headed liberalism in the Catholic Church. A great deal of it is left over from the 60’s. I hope that it’s starting to make it’s way out.
There is alos a great deal of “white, liberal guilt”. I think a residual of public schooling. As there is no litmus test requirement, there is no way to keep these people out the door.
There are non-practicing Catholics (who are still counted as Catholics), there are liberation theology types and there are also outright sabateurs (secular humanists posing as practicing Catholics), who mean to undermine the Church and it’s teaching. I would bet that Catholics United is one such group, along with Voice of the Faithful. If you looked at their policy position on down the line you would find that they were out of step with the Magesterium on many issues; marriaqge of clergy, gay mariage, etc.
Subversively undermining the Church and the teachings of the Gospels is at the heart of these issue.
According to Catholic teaching if one promotes or practices abortion they have already excommunicated themselves from the Body of Christ. A lot of folks don’t know this, even Catholics.
I don’t know that the Church has ever publicly cut someone off from the faith in modern times. I think they would like to reserve this for hardcore schismatics who obstinantly and recklessly lead the faithful away.
I believe Pelosi, and probably Biden, have achieved this criteria. They willfully and with intent, misinform people on the teachings of the Church. They lead the faithful away from Christ and they know what they are doing.
I believe that they should be publicly excommunicated.
I much prefer my own anagram which better defines the caring personality of our new President.
Barack Hussein Obama =
BANK HIM, B.O. USA~CAESAR
*Support Barack Obama, a Great American President
