“The bishops can follow that example by making sure that Catholic individuals who enable FOCA to move through Congress from Pelosi on down are:”

Do you think any of A,B,C, will take place?

Its easy to talk about what to do and speculate but any actions will take a lot of prayer, meditation and reflection.

I laid out what I think are a series of actions that should be considered, but I am no position to carry them out. I think there a number of bishops, but certainly not a majority who could carry some or maybe all of these steps out.

I pray that something will be done not out of a negative spirit but because Christ himself would insist on nothing less.

The communication of the Holy Spirit in disciplining those Catholic political leaders who support FOCA will be critical and the communication of the Holy Spirit in the face of media distortion will be just as critical.

I think I understand what you say. It's a problem when a prominent person claims to be a person of faith and then acts against the tenets of that faith willfully.

It's a difficult world.

I hope to be at the Life March. This is a big year! I also hope to be at the Youth Mass in the Verizon Center.

Is there any organization or centralized point of communication at FR, where it may be possible to gather with other FRiends and see if they will be at the march.

I’ve met lots of great friends at the march. I’d like to finally be able to meet some fellow FReepers on the 22nd.
