Steele is pro-abortion, he should resign his post as Chair of the RNC.
Plus he is anti-gun rights.
Is the Bishop related to the Gettelfinger who is head of the UAW and a huge Democrat? Inquiring minds want to know....
With Notre Dame having BO, a believer in killing the unborn, come to speak at its commencement, I’d say the Catholic Church is bi-polar.
This post totally needs the spine staff pic! WTG Bishop!!
Plus he is anti-gun rights.
Plus he is a Racist.....he advocates Affirmative Action.
Nope, some anti catholics claiming to be catholic and are not are making it seem like the church is bi polar. I don’t know why they don’t just formally renounce the church? You cannot be catholic and pro abortion. You excommunicate yourself by the act of supporting/participating in abortion. Too bad many catholics are either so ignorant or worse, so stupid, that they don’t know their faith well enough to know this. Any catholic you see advocating something that is a doctrine of the faith is in heresy, and therefore anathema. The catholic church itself is united and has no division...
He’s a pro-lifer who believes in a woman’s right to choose. Where’s the equivocation? /sarcasm
*should be advocating AGAINST something- sorry about that, fingers faster than proofreading LOL
He should be more concerned about South Bend than Evansville
Evansville Catholics are serious about their faith.
WTH? Gettelfinger is the Bishop of Evansville, not South Bend. (Psst - it’s 300 miles from here)
I think this is probably being done to demonstrate that the Church is opposed to pro-abortion statements from members of either party, and not just Dems. (Although a suspicious part of me just says that it’s easier for them to stand up to Republicans because most of the bishops are Dems to begin with, they know there will be no retribution against the Church from the GOP and, in any case, the traditional GOP platform is pro-life...)
Better said:Evansville Catholics are blessed with a gutsy bishop. Good for them!
Indiana does have more than one bishop (I know it’s in flyover country, but Indiana is a heavily Catholic state). Geography lesson: Evansville is in the southwest corner of Indiana...South Bend is in the very far north part of the state (D’arcy (sp?) is their bishop).
I originally hail from Indianapolis, which also has its own bishop (Buchelein).
Or do we do we have another detractor with a keen vision for seeing the speck in a Republican's eye, but who is blind to the plank lodged in a Democrats eye?
Freep-mail me to get on or off my pro-life and Catholic List:
Please ping me to note-worthy Pro-Life or Catholic threads, or other threads of interest.
Obama Says A Baby Is A Punishment
Obama: “If they make a mistake, I don’t want them punished with a baby.”
It does not appear that he is the Bishop for South Bend. So stay tuned on the Notre Dame issue.
OK correction noted, but my point really was that the outrage should be directed at a pro-abortion Pres__dent vs. a political party rep.
