PING!
I wonder, could the Catholic Church have been so blind that it could not see that Catholics in America have been voting to keep and renew the democrip politicians who are now smiling at this latest manifestation of the elimination of Church from the dying Republic? Is the Church so short sighted that they did not realize not standing up against politicians like Dungheap Harkin and Nazi Pelosi who push and push for more abortion slaughter would not result in evil taking over and aiming at The Church?
Hmmm, one too many ‘nots’ in that last. Need more coffee for this tired old brain and weeping heart.

Catechism of the Catholic Church

2357 Homosexuality refers to relations between men or between women who experience an exclusive or predominant sexual attraction toward persons of the same sex. It has taken a great variety of forms through the centuries and in different cultures. Its psychological genesis remains largely unexplained. Basing itself on Sacred Scripture, which presents homosexual acts as acts of grave depravity, tradition has always declared that "homosexual acts are intrinsically disordered." They are contrary to the natural law. They close the sexual act to the gift of life. They do not proceed from a genuine affective and sexual complementarity. Under no circumstances can they be approved. |
Well, USCCB, you would do well to recognize that NONE of Omama’s policies are worthy of your support.
You seem to have confused his current orhestration of massive illegal immigration, as some sort of compassionate enterprise.
In fact it is designed to ensure an eternally dependent underclass of voters to keep America hating liberals in power.
The result will be complete destruction of YOUR religious freedom, and the condemnation of LEGAL immigrants and minorities to eternal slave wages.
Take the king’s coin, play the king’s tune.
That and by far the American Catholics have been on the Democrat side of things. Yes, the Know Nothings were anti Catholic in the late 1800’s, but that doesn’t excuse it.

Well stated. The enemy will take any advantage you give them.
They want the illegal immigrants because they are nominally Catholic. If they were Protestant I doubt the Bishops would be for it.
Sadly, if they were muslims they would bring them in by the bushel load. Catholic Charities has done that around here (along with the ELCA’s Lutheran Charities).
“I wonder, could the Catholic Church have been so blind “
Too many bishops in the USCCB have “power” ties to the government. But it’s not only the Catholic church but all the mainstream Christian churches. If they did not...then why were they all so silent when the SCOTUS created the abortion LAW with their decision on Roe v Wade?
Yes, of course. This paragraph - and the two following paragraphs - of the CCC defines my attitude toward same-sex activity and those who suffer from it day in and day out.

You mean the Protestant mainline churches remained silent before Roe v. Wade, for surely we Catholics didn’t remain quiet. For a long while it was just us until the Evangelicals joined us in the 1980’s.

Very true, though many nominally Catholic politicians were pro infanticide (and remain so).
My synod was always pro life, but talking with people from that time, working with Catholics (or visa versa) was not considered possible. Remember, most of the people at that time were raised in the pre VII church, which viewed contact with non Catholics as dangerous at best, and heretical at worst. It was the same for my synod. Working with a Catholic on pro life causes and invoking the name of Jesus would be cause for review at the parish level.
One of the interesting things is that as the culture turns, we have been forced to recognize we are on the same side.
