Thank goodness! I was getting worried. Every Sunday our petitions are so “kumbaya” I was concerned the Church was endorsing this fiasco. They seem torn because they want health care for the poor and downtrodden, but they know their are abortion strings attached to this particular health care overhaul.
Yes, Mel, I think we can be extremely thankful.
Our Bishops would never let anything that was anti-life and pro-death get their approval.
BTW, our intentions/petitions ALWAUS have a pro-life intention in them. Are we blessed at our church, or what?
well they better get the word out to the ‘squishy’ parishes because i have been hearing the kumbaya crap about healthcare in the petitions and sermons at those type of churches. my husband nearly exploded on prolife sunday when the priest spoke of the need for healthcare reform and did not MENTION the coverage for abortion.
Then the Catholic Church ought to use some of their own vast resources to buy medical insurance for the poor. We need to take care of our own and leave this commie government out of it as much as we can.
