The Vatican has confirmed an American bishop's decision to excommunicate members of the dissident group Call to Action.

Meanwhile Mahoney, et al have yet to be defrocked.

from the FAQ on Call to Action's website:

How do the leaders of the Catholic Church view CTA?

Call to Action is not a schismatic group. There have been no pronouncements from Church authorities in Rome against Call to Action or its members. Individual bishops have varying opinions of Call to Action. Some bishops have disapproved of Call to Action and others have embraced CTA and have even become active members themselves.

Better get that updated.

Call to Action is a bunch of pro-abortion democrats who think if one volunteers at a homeless shelter or food kitchen they are following the pro-life tenets of the catholic church knowing they are voting to murder 1.2 million babies per year.

Hot diggity dog. A bishop with a backbone. Imagine how different our society would be today if all American bishops had stood their ground like this 40 years ago.

Glad to see this, but I don't know why more bishops don't do this.

Next on the block should be "Catholics for Choice," or whatever those bloodthirsty bastards are calling themselves these days.

Also, a serious look should be taken at Joanne Chittester's merry band of amazon warrior-queens.

The excommunication order applies only within the Lincoln, Nebraska diocese.

VERY disappointing.
