Quoting the U.S. Declaration of Independence, the bishop wrote: "The dignity of the human person begins at the moment of conception, not at birth. The dignity, as recognized by the signers of the Declaration of Independence, is bestowed by the Creator, and no one has the right to destroy innocent unborn life." http://www.catholicnewsagency.com/new.php?n=10434I doubt the ‘Say it ain’t so Joe’ Biden is experiencing anything close to conscience pangs. After a lifetime of leftist graft and subversion, he’s as hard as stone. Personally, I’d be suprised if he does any suffering over anything he’s done until Judgement Day.
But probably not in the manner which the Bishop seems to be suggesting.
Joe Biden—what conscience?
And if my uncle had wheels, he would be a truck.
C'mon Joe. Do the right thing. Time to get in the game. Be part of the deal.
Pray, pray, pray! Pray for Biden, and Obama! Imagine how great it would be if they had a true crisis of conscience, changed their minds on abortion, and said to the country, “you know what, abortion *is* murder and we’re going to act like it is too,” and then introduced legislation to ban it. He’d become my favorite president.
Keep praying. Abortion only became an article of left-wing faith because it is a necessity to radical feminism, which is an important SIG in left-wing politics. Without abortion, women of the same productivity as a man aren’t as hireable or as promotable in the workplace as that man because of the higher risk associated with them (women withdraw from the workplace after giving birth, sometimes for years). Radical feminists know this, and THIS alone is the reason why they are in favor of it. It’s purely about money. There’s nothing about left-wing politics in and of itself that makes it a “pro-abortion” platform, it’s simply an accident of history that it happened this way. We CAN change peoples’ minds on this, so don’t give up. Pray, pray, pray. Volunteer at a crisis pregnancy center. Spread the word. Educate yourself.
NOTHING Biden can do will wash the blood off his hands. Nothing.
And to think I was considering going to confession for the first time in 30 years.
bttt
I don’t know what makes the good bishop think Biden is “struggling” with anything; he’s certainly given no indication of any struggle whatsoever in his many years in Congress, busy voting for pro-abortion legislature whenever he can.
He won’t “struggle” until there are some consequences - that is, earthly, visible, and potentially politically costly - for his continued defiance of Church teaching. Then he might be forced to give it some thought. But now? Nah.
Pray for their conversion from cafeteria Catholicism to real Catholicism.

Obama Says A Baby Is A Punishment
Obama: “If they make a mistake, I don’t want them punished with a baby.”
He is lying and playing a game; and in the process making a mockery of the genocide of 50+ million babies slaughtered since Roe.
He and the thousands of wicked “Catholic” politicians around the world should be publicly and formally excommunicated post haste.
They should be regularly condemned as the heretical barbarians that they are.
They should never be allowed to set foot on ANY Catholic property, especially not desecrating Churches with their unholy presence, until they repent.
They are mortal enemies of the Church, The State and of Humankind itself.
One day Christendom will have to come to the realization that the time for diplomacy ended when the first baby was ripped apart under Roe v Wade. This is a war; with more real blood and guts than all the wars in history combined.

Obama Says A Baby Is A Punishment
Obama: “If they make a mistake, I don’t want them punished with a baby.”
The king’s heart is in the hand of the LORD, as the rivers of water: he turneth it whithersoever he will.
