P.S.: A message to all abortion promoting Catholic politicians: come on up for Communion.

Catholics here in the U.S. MUST ADMIT that the Church has done a horrible job of explaining the Church's “social justice” teaching; such a horrible job that many Catholics readily accept socialism because of what they believe about that teaching.

Through that hook - “social justice” - the faithful are converted to the unfaithful; willing to accept abortionists because they are also going to “redistribute the wealth” to “the poor”.

Robin Hood did not steal from the rich. He took back from the corrupt local government the confiscatory taxes it had taken from the people.

Yeshua demanded NOTHING from Caesar; nothing for Himself; nothing for His followers; nothing for their mission; nothing for the people but that he quit taking what was theirs.

Bishop Carlson was formerly the Bishop of Sioux Falls, SD..we were sad to see him go.

Finally the Bishops are starting to recognize that liberal politicians some of them professing to be Catholic are the greatest danger to the unborn. Perhaps their case would be better made if they publicly excommunicated the likes of Pelosi, Biden and Teddy Kennedy for their support of abortion.

In case anyone was wondering, this is the land area covered by the Dioecesis Saginavensis. The parishes are also shown on the map.

The diocese, according to the best numbers I have (2004 numbers from catholic-hierarchy.org), is 19.3 percent Catholic.

Obama received 30,828 more votes than McCain in this territory (188,489 to 157,661).

Proposal 2 (embryonic stem cell research) went down to heavy defeat in the diocese, with Yes getting only 43.82% (Yes received 148,835 votes while No received 190,824). However, like many statewide elections, the liberal "Big 3" of Wayne, Washtenaw (Ann Arbor), and Ingham (East Lansing), voted massively Yes, and the rest of the state couldn't overcome it (the 41,989 vote gap in the Diocese was well overcome by the 117,000+ gap in favor of the proposal in Wayne County alone).

A friendly ping, and could you add the topic of Catholic to this post so it shows up on some radar screens? I’m afraid I don’t know how to do it. (I’ve always been more of a replier than a poster.)

**“Sadly, however, this moment in American history also comes with many setbacks in the continuing struggle to protect the rights and dignity of all people, especially the unborn.” **

Thank you Bishop Carlson!
