All of the above proves that a good rationalization is something worth its weight in gold - especially if you want to sleep at night and look at yourself in the morror while shaving.

Mr. Biden knows that he is incorrect. He just won’t admit it, and that is a mortal sin.

Yeah the Church is a big tent- but sanctity of human life from conception is turning out to be the tall pole in that tent.

Biden, Pelosi and others are being exposed as mere canvas drapers.

John F. Kennedy famously disavowed "outside religious pressures or dictates"

JFK never publicly advocated the abortion of children. He would never have been elected to the House, Senate, or White House if he had. In 1972, when his brother-in-law Sargent Shriver ran on the pro-abort McGovern ticket he was trounced.

It is a tragedy that public opinion on human life has deteriorated to the point where pro-aborts can be politically popular. Regardless of public opinion, the Christian Church has a responsibility to publicly denounce those who cooperate with and finance abortion with public funds.

He’s either a liar or a fool. Oh wait...it’s Biden. He’s both.

Just like the majority of non-Catholics he has chosen his own theology by what he wants to believe, making God in his own image. I think it is coming to a head just like other things in the past and something is going to have to be done. These cafeteria Catholics need to choose, God or Mammon.

"I was raised at a time when the Catholic Church was fertile with new ideas and open discussion about some of the basic social teaching of the Catholic Church," Biden says. "Questioning was not criticized; it was encouraged."

In other words, an intrusion of modernist ideas which intellectually seduced cultural Catholics like Biden and Pelosi.

Biden: "There are elements within the church who say that if you are at odds with any of the teachings of the church, you are at odds with the church. I think the church is bigger than that."

One of those "elements" that says this is the Pope. I guess Biden feels like he is more enlightened than the Pope. Again, how about a few excommunications of some of these American politicians who are IMHO heretics?

"My views are totally consistent with Catholic social doctrine." - Biden

Yeah, and I wear a red cape whenever I fly around Metropolis.

“”The animating principle of my faith, as taught to me by church and home, was that the cardinal sin was abuse of power,” he said in an interview with the Monitor. “It was not only required as a good Catholic to abhor and avoid abuse of power, but to do something to end that abuse.”

Sorry, that’s as far as I could stomach....how about ‘bearing false witness’ as a US Senator...that’s a remarkable abuse of power if you ask me.

""I don't think I have the right to impose my view – on something I accept as a matter of faith – on the rest of society," he writes in his autobiography."

This is a patently false statement! Neither Biden nor his fellow Democrats hesitate to "impose" their views on the rest of us regarding a wide variety of fundamental issues.

For instance, a so-called "woman's right to choose" to destroy the life of her unborn child is off limits, according to this "rule." At the same time, Biden and the others refuse to allow that same woman a "right to choose" the school of choice for her other children. They find no problem with imposing their views.

Biden finds no problem with "impos{ing}" his view on those who work their way up to certain income levels by using his coercive political power in government to "take" part of their earnings in order to transfer those earnings to others--under the guise of benevolence and doing good.

Private charity is commendable. Gathering his fellow politicians together and challenging all of us to share our earnings reflects the philosophy of Judeo-Christian teachings. But, imposing the power of office in order to take that which cannot be done otherwise without breaking the law cannot be called benevolence.

These are only a few examples of the hypocrisy of his statement.

There are many our there who are redefining Christianity based on social currents. Christianity has always been a thorn in the side of many and many don’t have the guts to follow the path so Christianity is being watered down on a daily basis because the teachings of Christ are now considered offensive.

Communism is alive and well. These are the NEOCOMS.

I’m pretty sure the church is against lying too.
Biden lies on a regular basis - he did it again last night.
He also stabbed his “friend” McCain in the back when he had to gall to credit success in Iraq to Barak.
I’m pretty sure stabbing a friend in the back isn’t acceptable either.

Biden has excommunicated himself from the Catholic Church. The best thing that could happen would be for his bishop to proclaim it formally and publicly. This would be an excellent opportunity for the Shepherd to teach and correct the flock (and the gen. public) on the life issues. It would probably save many lives and souls. Perhaps even Biden would get set straight and repent, which is the general purpose of a formal excommunicated in the first place.

"The animating principle of my faith, as taught to me by church and home, was that the cardinal sin was abuse of power."

Try this on, Senator: how is abortion not the ultimate abuse of power?
