"pro-abortion Catholic"

You're either one or the other, not both.

Hmmm, they were protesting and they were *not* leftwing maggot-infested neer-do-wells ... yes, surely that is illegal!

It is an outrage that an event honoring a pro-abortion Catholic Catholic In Name Only (CINO)

"...student participants in American Life League's Crusade..."
Crusades, even Crusades of the Children [students in this case] are supposed to be conducted in the lands of infidels, not in the cathedrals. And as a fringe benefit, the Crusaders get the stay of debts and taxes due from them. Thus if these students do not have an IRS ruling to that effect, they cannot be considered Crusade participants.

the inauguration ceremonies of Antonio Villaraigosa, mayor-elect of Los Angeles,

Does Los Angeles inaugurate all its mayors at the cathedral? Isn't this something like the crowning of the goddess Reason in Notre Dame (only tackier)? What's going on?

"...who is a pro-abortion Catholic."

In other news, a pro-peace pacifist assaulted three people, A meat-eating vegetarian was caught rustling cattle and a celibate chastity advocate fathered 6 children.

God bless these young people for their defense of the defenseless. I am sick of these 'catholic pretenders' and their 'catholic' supporters. Ahhhhnold, Gore and all the other elected 'catholic' politicians who parade their catholic faith in public while denigrating the very faith of the church into which they were baptized, by their support of abortion.

My prayers for Roger Cardinal Mahony that he will have a change of heart.

Thank you, MurphE, for posting this thread! Please remember this shepherd in your prayers and ask our Lord to send the Holy Spirit to guide him to the Truth.

Are these the people that were booing the Mayor?

later pingout.

[Salvation]

The mayor never should have scheduled anything for the Cathedral. He is not a true Catholic.

And Roger Cardinal Mahoney should deny him Communion.

"American Life League calls for the immediate resignation of Cardinal Roger Mahony in light of his continued defiance of Church teaching," said Brown.

[Barnacle]

Cardinal Roger Mahony must be recalled.

[Coleus]

Pro-abortion Catholics should not politic or be allowed in a Catholic Church.

I met the Crusaders for Life from last summer. They had just finished walking from Maine to DC. They were a great bunch of young people. They stopped in front of St. Matthew's Cathedral on a Sunday afternoon, and they had their bright red "You Can't Be Catholic and Pro-Abortion" t-shirts on. They got some shameful treatment from people coming out of Mass there (then again, the infamous Dupont Circle neighborhood is within walking distance, and the "Human Rights Campaign" headquarters is just up the street from there.) I know one of the employees at ALL who coordinates these activities (I see he is walking with the California group.). God bless them!

[Iris7]

I have a source within the Church whom I trust totally. His description of Mahoney is very clear. Mahoney should be defrocked. Immediately. Not exaggerating.

[RKBA Democrat]

I'll pray for the Roman Catholics in the L.A. Archdiocese. It seems at times that the lunatics have taken control of the asylum.

[Aquinasfan]

"It is an outrage that an event honoring a pro-abortion Catholic public figure that openly supports the killing of the preborn would occur at Our Lady of the Angels Cathedral," said Brown. "It is even more shameful that Cardinal Mahony and others would attempt to censor faithful Catholic students from proclaiming the truth."

Apalling. Cardinal Mahoney, tear down that cathedral!

Wow. If you can be an RC Cardnal and support a pro abort politician .... I bet you can probably bugger little boys too. I guess once you are a cardinal there ARE no rules.
