Well, it looks like I better renew my subscription to This Rock magazine.
The time to fight is NOW;the opportunity to fight yesterday is lost,and tomorrow the evil ones will have gained strength if unopposed!
Fight back in the courts,in press releases,in sermons from the pulpits,in newsletters,and evey venue by shining the bright light of truth on the cockroachs,even, and especially upon those inside the Church.
We subscribe to Catholic Answers AND This Rock - I am so elated to see Catholic Answers FIGHT BACK!
The week after the inauguration, one of our priests mentioned two of the first executive orders: freeing the prisoners in Gitmo and allowing our tax dollars abroad to fund abortion. He compared it to giving LIFE to a few at the risk of many (Gitmo) and TAKING life from many for the benefit of a few. I was so proud of him for saying it in Mass! He didn’t shame anyone - he just pointed out how life was involved in both orders in contradiction to each other.
Intimidation? Only for conservative groups/organizations.
I can see that you know nothing about Catholic Answers.
How much less could you care?
Catholic Answers isn't Catholic Charities.
