This is the stupid apostate world we live in.
The organizer of the St. Patrick's day parade who has include a gay identity group and is currently accepting applications from pro-abortion groups said this ridiculous thing. OReilly told CNA said the parade policy was changed due to Catholic teaching about showing compassion and understanding to groups that dont agree with all the Churchs teachings.
I think, in part, the tone is changing within the Church, and I think Pope Francis has spoken about this, and Cardinal Dolan did last night, OReilly said. There is a sense among many Catholic leaders [for] showing that compassion and that brotherly love, regardless of whether or not one agrees with Church teachings. It may be the best foot forward for the Church at this point. We hope people will see it in that light.
The only archbishop in the country I am sure is a Catholic is Aquila in Denver. He made a public statement in 2008 that if Joe Biden came through the Fargo diocese, he was not to be given Communion.
Every other archbishop, and every Cardinal, gives Communion to pro-aborts. (And by that I mean that they also direct their priests to commit the same mortal sin.)
The bishops’ conference, in 2004, adopted as their official policy that a bishop may “legitimately” give Communion to pro-abortion politicians.
In other words, the official, written, published policy of our bishops’ conference is that a bishop may “legitimately” commit mortal sin.
The imbecility of that statement—the total, slack-jawed, drooling, gibbering imbecility—is just mind-blowing. And the majority of the bishops in the country adopted that statement as their own.
