"In Thursday's State of the State message, Ritter, a lifelong Catholic and former missionary, pledged to restore funding for family planning and pregnancy prevention[birth control]. He also said during the campaign that he wouldn't seek to overturn abortion laws and voiced support for same- sex unions. All are policies that run against church teachings."



But . . . but . . . Ritter said that he was "pro-life"?

And everybody says Archbishop Chaput is "conservative".

Jeanette DeMelo, the archdiocese's communications director said, "Chaput wouldn't have stopped the Mass in any case: "He is aware of what people are saying, and the governor's sometimes very ambiguous position on abortion, but at the same time he has not judged that the situation required his action."
