Were the Republicans to run a Catholic for president who supported, say, segregation, the bishops wouldn’t hesitate to condemn that figure and warn their congregations not to vote for him. But the bishops apply no such condemnation or warning to Joe Biden, who is a dissenter in favor of abortion rights and gay marriage. Even Biden’s officiating at gay marriages, an egregiously disobedient act for a Catholic, is met with silence from most bishops.
Had the offending priest spoken of racism instead of abortion, such a rebuke would be inconceivable. (Look at all the slack the bishops give BLM-supporting priests.)
While Pope Francis felt no reservations about condemning Trump’s faith — he called him “not Christian” for supporting border walls — he and his like-minded bishops refuse to question Biden’s. Instead, the pope’s surrogates spend their time defending a vote for the Democratic Party, in spite of its openly anti-Catholic agenda. “It’s not a sin for Catholics to vote Democrat,” says Jesuit Father James Martin. Imagine Martin writing that it is not a sin to vote for a segregationist. It would never happen. But he has no problem running interference for a pol who supports late-term abortions.

Ping
Amen.
One wonders if this kind of sin of omission is what drove Martin Luther in his time.
“Come forth from her midst, My people, And each of you save yourselves From the fierce anger of the LORD. King James 2000 Bible My people, go you out of the midst of her, and deliver yourselves every man his soul from the fierce anger of the LORD. “ Jeremiah 51:45
“Then I heard another voice from heaven say: “’Come out of her, my people,’ so that you will not share in her sins, so that you will not receive any of her plagues;” Revelation 18:4
Both the Pope and Biden are owned by the CHICOMS
What business does the pope have commenting on Trumps Christianity? Trump is a Protestant
Wicked heretics.
The USCCB supports some of the most anti-Catholic positions possible.
JoMa
I think those Jesuit-Catholic RCC leaders are cultural Marxists. Just like our leftists/progressives.
A Catholic or Christian or Jew supporting or endorsing supporters of abortion on demand (murder, see 5th Commandment) is apostate, quite simply.
Save
Jesuit!
The Catholic church is anti GOP. They would prefer life under a persecution government.
And yet, one would logically think all Christians and Jews would favor a conservative/Republican platform.
Pro-God, pro-life, pro-liberty, pro-heterosexual, pro-marriage, pro-giving, pro-reason...
Many Orthodox and Most Catholics view the Republican party as “evil” since it lumped in with the Know Nothings of the early 19th century.
That and the power structure does not like republics or democracy, and would prefer working with a single powerful ruler (easier to limit competition, form a lasting contract with, influence etc.).
Look at how Rome deals with China for example. Despite there being faithful underground Catholic churches, it would rather deal with an antichristian regime. Even though it means those hidden believers are now going to be persecuted.
But it gives the hierarchy one point of contract and more control, even if the result is heretical
So, because power and control.
The Great Commission? Not so much.
Although the imposter on the Chair of Peter has said nothing publicly, it’s obvious he hates Trump who gave millions of blacks jobs and improved their economic condition, and favors biden who will destroy jobs and make blacks dependent on government.
I have no proof, but I would bet all the fleas on my favorite prayer rug that the pope has been working quietly to get biden elected.
An endorsement from them is a stain, not a plus.
The (Catholic) Bishops Bail Out Biden .
Makes you wonder how much the reverse “contribution” was?
Speaking as a person raised Catholic, and one who attended 15 years in a Catholic education system, I have no hesitation in saying the Catholic Church, Bishops, and Holy See long ago has lost all moral authority! Pay no attention to the man behind the vestments!
The Bishops are left wingers and alway have been. Biden is an abortion loving Catholic. He is clean dirt and so are the Bishops.
