I was just pointing out that there’s a lot more evil in this bill than just abortions. Communism kills more people than abortion and the bishops should be opposed to all of it. Even if they “win” and get abortion funding removed, it will just get slipped back in under some “health of the woman” provision. To believe anything else is naive.

I don’t hate Catholics. My own church leadership isn’t doing squat to stop this bill, but they also aren’t sending out press releases. The story was about your bishops, so that was what I commented on. When an announcement from the UMC hits FR saying that it opposes only part of the bill but is cheering for the communist slavery parts, then I will comment on their hypocrisy.

You know, you don’t have to insult people that have an opinion you don’t like. I just wish your Bishops AND my Bishops would take a stand against this monstrosity.

Well, then I suggest you “clean up your own house” before you criticize those of us who are actually fighting abortions!!!

This is happening already. While the Hyde Amendment does in fact "ban" federal funding of abortions it remains true that Planned Parenthood gets a ton of federal funding which it uses to perform abortions.
