America is a national weekly magazine published by the American Jesuits .... enough said. St. Ignatius Loyola, pray for them!

that the religious leaders should listen to “enlightened” Catholics who accept the president’s terms, reports Cardinal Timothy Dolan.

Well its is likely Satan accepts the president’s terms. I doubt the religious leader will listen based on that either.

“Enlightened” = “Fallen Away and Don’t Really Give A Rip”

When this White House talks about “enlightened” anyone, they are talking about those who have come around to Lucifer’s thinking, evolution, humanism, and throwaway values. They aren’t talking about the intellectualism of high conscience.

About time they stood up and acted like men as well as Bishops.

The Church should flex it’s muscle by ex-communicating a few CINO politicians. I would start with the biggest mouth first.

Doesn’t the commie Chinese government maintain its own “Catholic” church, complete with government approved priests and bishops?

“Enlightened” = set the broiler on “deep fat fry” in the hereafter.

Yes they do. I have the privilege of knowing an "unapproved" Priest.Fr. Joseph Li. The man has big BA-RASS ones. His uncle spent 30 in a Re-education camp for opening a Catholic Church. Fr. Joe was following in his footsteps.

The Catholic Bishops did indeed promote Obamacare and indeed they did get stung.

They had no idea what they were promoting, and who would have thought that Catholics in Government would back Obama instead of Jesus Christ.It shows how sick these politicians are that they sell their soul to this hybrid Satan’s accomplice.

I too believe it is time the Bishops started playing hard ball. Star telling these Apostate catholics that they can no longer receive the Sacraments of the Catholic Church, since the do not bvelieve the teachings of the Catholic Church and would rather stand behind this Muslim Devil.

You can ALWAYS find a useful idiot somewhere to parrot lib propaganda.

Especially when the media DOESN’T DARE to ask the obvious questions.

Unless the statement is about GAYS, of course.

Clearly, the term "enlightenment" is not the appropriate word to be used by this Administration. As a matter of fact, should "the People" become truly "enlightened," this Administration and its policies of coercive power and force would not be tolerated.

Hear James Madison, the "father" of the Constitution:

"Although all men are born free, slavery has been the general lot of the human race. Ignorant—they have been cheated; asleep—they have been surprised; divided—the yoke has been forced upon them. But what is the lesson? ... the people ought to be enlightened, to be awakened, to be united, that after establishing a government, they should watch over it ... It is universally admitted that a well-instructed people alone can be permanently free."

This isn’t an anti-Catholic stance, however, I find it hypocritical that Catholics are up in arms over this. Let me explain: First of all they vote in droves for the Democratic party, which is the party of pro-abortion, then they overwhelmingly support Romney, who also was pro-abortion. So, what’s their problem? Of course, we know this is an attack on the 1st Amendment, but, I’m just making some logical observations here.

Agreed. The Bishops appear to have out smarted themselves.

No compromising with Obama. Just as well, since he’s proven himself to be a double-crosser and a president who exhibits utter contempt for the First Amendment.

Time for USCCB to sue. And no more initiatives to make compromises with snakes in future.
