So much for the Roman Catholic unity we keep hearing about.

Another Catholic priest who wants to get the church back to its roots, what it should be instead of the immoral, corrupted mess it has become, gets the axe.

I guess speaking out against corruption and immorality and lack of fidelity to Catholic teaching isn’t very popular amongst the clergy higher ups.

Shades of Luther.....

And then you had

Vice President Joe Biden attended mass and received communion on Sunday at St. Patrick’s Cathedral in New York where the mass was celebrated by Cardinal Timothy Dolan.

At a time when the administration is being sued by Dolan and the Catholic Bishop’s Conference over the Obama health care provision on birth control, the meeting was seen as an attempt to create a new dialogue.

An Irish American Catholic, Biden receiving communion was also seen as significant. Dolan’s predecessor Cardinal Edward Egan refused to give communion to those who differed with the church on the abortion issue.

Biden says he is pro-life but will not seek to impose his views on others.

Biden met with Cardinal Dolan after the mass for coffee but what they discussed was not made public.

Biden’s latest move comes at a time when the Obama administration appears to be using the VP in a new outreach to American Catholics. -

LOL I wonder if all Catholics consider the Archdiocese of New York, and Cardinal Dolan in particular, to be their fellow servants of the most High Lord?
