What?? A man of God, a priest takes his cue from the irs on what he cant preach from the pulpit? What principled preacher would subvert his sermons to the will of the government... The 1st Amendments prohibits the fed gov from that kind of influence. A priest is a fool if he obeys that law.
Next we have all those black churches where the demoncraps candidates go to just to pander, and the irs dares not to interfere with that sort of mixing polis with religion.
While it may be true a meager few low profile bishops did the right thing, truth is the Cathoilic clergy as a whole sat on their hands and committed the sin of omission. The whole council of American Bishops should have taken a principled stand and been unanimous in condemning and excommunicating this creep. It is a clear cut case of someone voting for partial birth, and the perfect time to take a stand.
Nothing remotely like that occurred... you tell me why?
The whole council of American Bishops should have taken a principled stand and been unanimous in condemning and excommunicating this creep. LOL -things take time to investigate and declare. This process is by only prescribed judicial procedure carried out by the competent authority. Do some research so that you may appear to know of what you assert.
Try to have some perspective -e.g. Kerry is not as heretical or objectively defiant as Luther was and the process to excommunicate Luther took some time and did not happen until after an official investigation was made and several efforts were made for his redemption...
The purpose of excommunication is not punishment -[it] is done in charity as a fraternal correction in hope of redemption... Kerry may or may not get excommunicated... Regardless, Kerry's status says nothing regarding the moral authority of the Church...
Now -explain how protestants deal with thse type situations?
