Progressive Bishop Laments Catholic Voter Support for Donald Trump
Breitbart ^ | 12/05/2024 | Thomas D. Williams, Ph.D.

Posted on 12/05/2024 6:12:12 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

Kentucky Bishop John Stowe has expressed his “dismay” over the overwhelming Catholic voter support for Donald Trump, insisting the U.S. Bishops should have warned Americans about the “danger” of the election.

Stowe, a well-known liberal prelate, said the bishops should have issued a public statement of disagreement with Trump’s policies following the election, the way they did in the case of Joe Biden four years ago.

There is the issue of Trump’s character, Stowe told Crux, an online Catholic news service, “and when somebody has such a flawed character that has been manifestly obvious throughout his previous presidency and the time in between, even denying the reality of the previous election, I think we have a responsibility to name the issue, and the issue is the person in this case.”

Must be talking with Francis. My Catholic church that I go to does not get into politics so far.

In contrast, look at Atlanta’s current “archbishop” and Atlanta’s former “archbishop” (Gregory) who was selected to go suck up to Francis’ Washington DC fetid swamp.

Gregory is a classic racist, pro-abortion, pro-illegal immigration democrat politician. Sitting on the catholic seat of power.

Another clerical commie, just like the current Pope.

Back in the days of old, the Pope and the vast majority of bishops were actually Catholic (or appeared to be so).

Appears the Bishop wants Catholic voters to support abortion promoters and atheists. No wonder the Church is failing around the World.

Why are these anti-christ “priests” tolerated in the RCC? There are plenty of these, and worse.

I’ll say it again, a Christian sect’s true doctrine is not what is written in their official documents, it is what they tolerate with impunity.

I wonder if Bishop Stowe has some serious character flaws. Just because they are priests doesn’t assure that they are of good character. Look at sexual abuse, antisemitism, etc., that many have openly and gladly approved.

“I wonder if Bishop Stowe has some serious character flaws.”

Watch some YouTube videos of the guy. If there’s a faggier bishop out there, I haven’t seen him.

PREACH IT!!!!

Appealing to *Official church doctrine* is a complete cop out.

Catholics need more than a new pope.

He did get elected by the College of Cardinals.
