I understand your point - and you have the hispanic contingent as well.
But this is what I see -
Heirarchy far left.
Majority of “Catholics” voting well left - MORE than average of society.
Then a small sliver of “real Catholics” who bother to understand what is going on.
It has gotten to a point where the political interferece of the majority and the leftist leaders - is really sort of outweighing the good of the others. There must be SOME point on the scale at which one says “OK - enough is enough!” In my opinion - the Catholic church is approaching that point - if it has not passed it.
This Cardinal didn’t have to say ANYTHING about global warming. There are plenty of the world’s poor, and social problems, to attend to. This is just politics.
You can’t make a blanket statement like “Hierarchy far left”. Granted there are many Bishops who lean to the left. However, there are many (Bishop Chaput, Archbishop Dolan, Bishop Bruskewicz just to name a few) teaching and preaching the Truth. Their voice is loud. It just happens that the msm only prints / broadcasts the left leaners. The msm wants to paint the Church leaders as liberals when that is not entirely true.
