Dear Congressman Kennedy

The Rhode Island Catholic ^ | Bishop Thomas J. Tobin

The Kennedy Sect of Catholisim: Abortion is the eighth Sacrament.

[silverleaf]

I imagine Henry the VIIIth also protested that his wanting a divorce for no valid reason didn’t make him less of a Catholic- didn’t fly then, either.

Problem is the Church has caved to the Kennedys for multiple generations of abortion support, divorce, adultery murder, greed and debauchery. The current generation thinks they are entitled to do what they want because their “values” supercede Church teaching.

Excellent letter! The bishop was very cordial but at the same time very firm in explaining the situation to Kennedy. Kudos to him!

that you support the Church, personally, publicly, spiritually and financially

If I recall my Baltimore Catechism, nothing was said about "financially." Maybe that was Vatican II ?

[Reaganesque]

I hope the Bishop included pictures with his letter. Patches doesn’t have a very long attention span.

Good for Bishop Tobin. Kennedy agreed to meet with him and then canceled the meeting. Kennedy's support for death has been very public and deserves to be denounced publicly.

Bravo Bishop Tobin!

Dear Congressman Kennedy, my mom says you whole family should be excommunicated.

I say you should be expelled from Congress for being a douche and your whole family including Schwarzenegger should be deported to Venezuela.

Sincerely, Impy.

WTG. Its about time someone called this hypocrite out.

"297. What is meant by the commandment to contribute to the support of the Church?

By the commandment to contribute to the support of the Church is meant that each of us is obliged to bear his fair share of the financial burden of the Holy See, of the diocese, and of the parish.

So also the Lord directed that those who preach the gospel should have their living from the gospel. (I Corinthians 9:14)"

Right On Biship Tobin!! I wish MORE Bishops would take this stance. Enough of Cafeteria Catholics.

[Ann Archy]

Oh PLEASE!! Do YOU not support your Church??

What religion are you??

[D-fendr]

Excellent, Kennedy stepped in it. Went public and got a public reply from his bishop:

“I invite you, as your bishop and brother in Christ, to enter into a sincere process of discernment, conversion and repentance.”

Remeber the poor widow that gave the Temple Box a couple of coins.....THAT’s SUPPORTING your Church!!
