Many Catholics are torn. The GOP statements on life are very good for them, but the worship of free market materialism is an issue.

The stated concern “for the poor” by the DNC matches what many Catholics perceive the social doctrine of the Church to be, but the DNC is very anti Catholic, and anti Christian in its morals.

We may see a Catholic third party once of these days as a result.

Free Market Capitalism has given billions to the Catholic Church. It is Catholics like Joe Biden , the Kennedy family and Pelosi who think the mass middle class should pay more taxes for the poor while they enrich themselves with government influence.

Many do not realize what Paul Ryan is about. He is saying work with me on subsidiarty and solidarity.

Subsidiarity means using the local food bank or St. Vincent De Paul Society food outlet rather than going on federal food stamps. Local government first — then move up the ladder if you must.

Solidarity is nothing more than using common sense. I really don’t think Dolan is opposed to this. In fact he came out in favor of Paul Ryan after the nomination.

This is just a rant by Amy Sullivan who doesn’t know what Catholic Ministry really is. Check out the “Holiness” link below — Ryan explains it much better than I can.
