The tone of this whole article reminds me of a joke my uncle once pulled on me. He said "I'm going to have to put this dog to sleep. It's turned mean. Every time I kick it, it tries to bite me!"

Perfect.

Then Latinos are so ignorant that they constitute a danger to the Republic. There is NO effort or initiative afoot in the Catholic Church to inform Latinos that the Democrat party is pro-abortion and pro-sodomy.

The major Latino organizations like La Raza ARE pro-abortion.

I’ve never understood why Catholics or for that matter any other Christian denomination could or would vote for democrats and their murderous platform, antithetical to the very core of their beliefs.

And the Union Bosses wanted to control the workers too, but the union parasites (who funnel money to the Democratic Party) are seeing their control being voted down in state after state after state, and there will be more states going into that column.

It’s the liberalism - it cripples the mind and poisons the soul.

“That would mean that 39% are morally dead or brain dead.”

Interesting that the most popular verse in the Bible in 2014 was Romans 12:2 instead of John 3:16.

For the first time ever, I ignored our “Bishop’s Lenten Appeal” because he openly admitted the money would be used to help “immigrants get citizenship”.

Love my church, tired of liberal/ leftist bishops.

The ignorance of the caller in the Thom Hartmann call (at the link you provided) is typical of the materialistic mindset of progressives. Hartmann himself seems to be a low-information voter. And neither he nor his caller seem embarrassed about their superficial analysis. Good grief!

I couldn’t agree more, even though some of them are fellow Christians and even family members. They need to be educated. My Latino SIL is on the ball, though, and none of this gets by him. He stuns his fellow Latinos when he informs them of what seems very obvious to us.

> The major Latino organizations like La Raza ARE
> pro-abortion.

Indeed! And the average Latino would be astonished, even incredulous, about this.

Where is the separation of Church and State!?

They preach the religion of evolution in public church/schools. Dems want separation of Christianity and state.

My Catholic family members who are actually aware of the depths of depravity of the demonRAT platform, and vote for them anyway, use the following logic.

It's not that "white Catholics" are shifting. It's that white PEOPLE, in general, are being increasingly alienated from Obama's Democrat Party. Catholic, Protestant, Jewish, atheist -- if you depend on a private sector job for your paycheck, the Dem party is not for you.

Currently, the white Dem party seem primarily government employees and dependents, and radical feminists.

The “mean” dog analogy is execellent.

The problem isn’t just Progressive/Liberal values; it’s how those values are being rammed down peoples’ throats.

The Progs/Dems have, thinking they passed the electoral tipping point (”40 More Years” by Snakehead Carville ring a bell?), overextended themselves.

IOW, since they won’t lose elections anymore, it’s safe for them to go full steam ahead on their actual, full, social agenda. Which runs contrary to the beliefs and desires of a lot of folks who voted them into power.

Those folks are now rebelling. While that rebellion has produced historic GOP wins in the House and Senate, it remains to be seen to what effect it has on Presidential elections, given the overwhelming lock the Dems have on 240 so electoral votes.

Sounds like a mission field for parish Respect Life ministries.

Related: We were at the Spanish Mass last week. Unavoidable to note the sheer numbers of twenty something couples with two or three children. At the Vigil Mass this past Saturday, there was about the same total attendance - maybe five children - no babies.

I have seen the demographic future.

(The Hispanic priest preached the homily at the Vigil in English. He made mention of homosexuality and abortion and said Catholics who disbelieved the Church's teaching were "walking in darkness".)

“Respect Life” ministries are generally viewed, by other “ministries,” as a bunch of Republicans who exploit the Church’s teaching on abortion to assist the Republican Party.

"Other ministries" are catty little bitches looking to rob validity from those they don't like.....

One of those “other ministries” got an announcement made of a one day fast during Lent against “climate change.”
