I don’t know why this is “news”.
Of course - being from the Rochester, NY diocese I’ve been watching this liberal catholic vs. orthodox catholic tension going on for some time now.
You’ve got the catholics who actually believe church teaching and consider abortiont to be the primary social issue.
You’ve got your “social justice” catholics who focus on the poor, the death penalty, and seem strangley unconcerned with abortion. They will get upset about Walmart coming to town. These are Barak voters.
And then there are CINO’s, the Christmas/Easter crowd, and the non-practicing group who call themselves catholic, but don’t care too much about the teaching....
It’s really not that hard to understand.
Great list! But let's not forget the radical feminist Catholics who want women to be priests and want homosexual behavior to be accepted and gay marriage to be performed....
