With high birth rates and continued immigration, legal and otherwise, would not the trend be for the American Catholic Church to become the Latino American Catholic Church?
And with the majority Latino American Catholics willing, indeed anxious, to support pro abort leaders then in time there is going to be a church membership that largely reflects the secular opinions on one side and the minority that support the official Catholic teaching on the other.
“The dollar means more to most bishops than following the word of God.”
But these bishops don't operate in a vacuum. They aren't elected by the membership, They're appointed and can be removed.
You're in a tough position, my friend, very tough.
“A bishop can write a letter or urge his parishioners one way or another but he too is simply offering personal opinion unless he is authorized to speak for the entire Catholic church and this he cannot do”
A bishop is representing the Pope, so what the bishop says should be representative of the entire church. If not, he’s going to get in a lot of trouble and will not be a bishop every long.
