The requests from the Catholic group are directly contradictory to Catholic teaching on the matter.
IOW, the group is not Catholic. End of story.

Pingus ad orcae schismaticae.

The CWL usually does good work at the parish level (think of it as a national network of ladies' parish auxiliaries) and most members, like my mother, take little notice of the national leadership's doings.

Unfortunately, this is going to stick to all the CWL branches in Canada unless they cut ties to headquarters.

Anyway, you can freep the crazy Church Ladies at national@cwl.ca or on their toll-free line, 1-888-656-4040.

CWL sounds like our Altar and Rosary Society without the politics? Good luck resolving this up there. This is the same reason I won't belong to national nurses' organizations. The leadership take it upon themselves to promote policy and speak for all the members.

I should add it now seems the dissenters are in open revolt. This is a big one.

Church bodies are being subverted by Lefties and pagans. A once great church is rotting morally from within.

From my vantage point on the West Coast, it appears the most liberal states are the most Catholic states (East Cosast). Am I wrong?

I just wonder how he feels about this unjust war now?

I'm just guessing that he "feels" that a good end can't justify illicit means.

Diseased chickens coming home to roost in the 'catholic church'. Chickens coming home to roost in the 'catholic church'. The 'I'd do anything for a photo op' pope and his mimic lunatic fringe division of empty purple robes are reaping years of neglect and sloth.

The catholic church has kissed not only the heathen book of blood - the koran - but kissed the butt of every penis challenged nun in his Murphy's Law cockeyed destruction of all that is sacred within the Roman Catholic Church.

I thank God Our Father for bringing to Light what has been a covert attempt by the prince of darkness to turn His Rock of marble into a lump of coal. These are not women of the Roman Catholic Church. But watch how sinners all, witch and warlock, hidden beneath the cloth of saints, join hands to mock His Word, our faith. He is near, and they will know his wrath up close and personal....for eternity.

Wonder how many of those sanctimonious women are lesbians?

Irrelevant.

NONE of them are Catholics, in the real sense of the term; and

They are ALL Canadians---so who cares???

The left has intercepted his "Hail Mary Pass" quotes regarding peace and ran the other way with them.

A cursory review of FR threads on the topic will demonstrate that the Right has done the same thing.

This proves beyond a doubt that the Pope was correct--both Left and Right hate him.

Just want to let you folks know that while this story is interesting, these folks are not Catholics. See, religion is not democratic. And, the cathlolic religion is one of the least democratic of all, which is why I like it.

So, any group lookig to set Catholic policy that is not part of the church itself, are merely former Catholics. Its like these "Cathlolics for Choice." Nice try. These folks might be "damn near Catholics", but, alas they are not Catholics. Why, because you either believe the church teaching, or your don't. Just push on and make your own Church. Those who choose to be real Catholics, will follow church teaching. If they don't like it, drop out. But stop calling yourself catholic. This isn't political, and they don't want or need a big tent. So move along.
