No mention of the Most Irreverend Mahony’s relationship with pedophiles? How come the Profane One doesn’t mind politicizing immigration? Oh yes, because he grew up running a plantation with illegal aliens for slaves! That’s different!

“If we had really had this honest dialogue among ourselves and got to understand each other’s positions and then acted as the communion of Bishops with our unity, we could have found a path forward. I believe we would have decided we do not need this document,” Mahony says.

As is typical with liberals both inside and outside of the Church, "dialogue" means that everyone must agree with them.

Mahony also argues that it is not possible to demand that Catholic politicians be consistent with their proclaimed Catholic faith. “First of all, we are a democratic republic. Our country’s path is one of separation of church and state. And so, it’s a very difficult position for politicians, Catholics, who are pressured by some in the Church to make all of the decisions based on Catholic Church doctrine,” Mahony argues.

Voters come first for Mahony, God comes in a far second.

The writer of the article is deliberately deceiving the readers and misleading the audience.

Mr. Roger Mahoney has been removed from the clerical status in the Church and he was expelled as Archbishop of Los Angeles. Sadly, Mr. Manoney prefers boys at night and pretends to be a priest during the day. Proof? The LA Times did a six part story about Mahoney’s crimes in 2009 and at other times.

“Catholics, who are pressured by some in the Church to make all of the decisions based on Catholic Church doctrine”

Mahony is actually worse on this than Bergoglio. The latter is at least willing to admit that fetal homicide is a scientific fact, not a point of “Catholic doctrine.”
