To this priest, who so perturbed him, Hannity may one day find himself grateful, perhaps eternally so.

And many other souls, as well.

Hannity majored in opportunism.

That said, I thought I heard Sean say that he found it perfectly acceptable for non catholic teens to use contraception because it's better than abortion.

When a caller stated that contraception is not guaranteed to be effective and then abortion would be the next step Sean seemed to suggest that the risk was acceptable to him.

He went on to say that he teaches his children differently. Sean's kids are five and eight if I'm not mistaken. I would hate to think he is giving them condom advice.

It would seem that Sean was suggesting that teaching about condoms is okay in the schools as long as it's not taught to catholic children.

I heard a good part of that program and was totally dismayed by the tone and the illogic of the arguments Sean was making.

So, according to this priest, having no problem with contraception is the same as supporting legal abortion? Both are the ground for denying communion?

Oh you just have to post the BEST line in Fr. Euteneuer's letter to Fr. Morris:

As a seminary rector, I would sincerely hope that you are not teaching by word or example the young men in your charge to be politically correct sissies who are afraid to roll up their sleeves and defend the Church in private and in public. We have tons of those types in the clergy already.

That is absolutely priceless!

And when Sean Hannity pulls out the line, "I went to the seminary. I studied theology. And Latin!" we need to remember that he's talking about the HIGH SCHOOL SEMINARY of the DIOCESE OF ROCKVILLE CENTER, for God's sake!

A well-known bastion of orthodox theology and ecclesiastical Latin!

When Sean went there, they were probably using the Sadlier how-to-make-a-collage "catechisms," and I would imagine that the extent of the Latin studied was the chorus to Immaculate Mary - if that.

You know what kills me? No one asks why Sean brought him on the show. Sean throwing in the scandals a few times didn't help.

The broadcast is being praised for having raised publicly that contraception leads to abortion and is contrary to the Catholic faith.

What a crock.

Used correctly, contraception CANNOT lead to abortion. If there's no baby created, there's no baby to abort.

Hmm, this changes my view of Hannity, at least a bit. How could he be so disrespectful to a priest? And indeed, how could he deny the teaching of the Church on contraception?

IMHO, Euteneuer is a cold, arrogant man who is totally lacking in charity. There would have been many other ways to address Sean Hannity, without the public vilification, especially the statement that he would deny Communion to Sean.

We conservative Catholics have no greater friend in the mainstream media than Sean Hannity.

Pharisees come in all shapes and sizes, and sometimes they wear Roman collars.

One would think the Church would be better served by attacked the rot within the clergy rather than Sean's "heresey". After all, that scandel has done FAR more to damage the Church than Hannity could ever do.
