Wow! Is that good news! I used to be so disgusted in New York when the priests would refuse to read Cardinal O'Connor's Pro-Life Sunday letter. And I know many priests don't read things sent out by our bishop here in Florida, either - he's very pro-life and pro-marriage, but many of the priests in our diocese are not (such as the pastor of the Cathedral, who was talking about how God made "some of us gay and some of us straight," and we're all hunky-dory). I'm glad to see a bishop with courage, one who takes his teaching role seriously.

Appears that these priests have the same understanding of confidential that some in the State Department do.
I'm loving this bishop!

I've often thought that something like this should be done because of all the obstinate libtards.

A substitute priest at my Denver-area church was to read a letter from Archbishop Chaput on some marriage and gay rights initiatives on the ballot. He made some slightly snarky remarks against the church getting involved in politics, but at least he read the letter.
Those who complain about the bishops' lack of instruction should keep in mind the opposition they might face from their own clergy.

I sent a copy of this communique to all the members of the chancery in my diocese - and even to my bishop. I would recommend that everyone else do the same. It's time that the bishops hear that there are many Catholics who want the truth to be told from the pulpits and that priests who won't do it, ought to be shuttled aside.

They should excommunicate dissenting priests. It is simple as that.

No excommunications, unless of course they do something really extreme like say a Latin Mass.

Did this happen at your church?
If not, I would suggest you print off the letter and take it to your priest.
I intend to. I priest talked about supporting the parental notification bill here in Oregon, so I am wondering if that suffices.
Action Ping!

May his example inspire other bishops and the priests later on who will become bishops.
Pastoring is serious business.
