I am not totally plussed with the "we will handle this in our own way according to the magisterium" response we have been hearing on other issues. I wish we could expect to see some public EXCOMMUNICATION of laity, and DEFROCKING (as we protestants call it in some circles) of KILLER PRIESTS posing as Catholics...
Of course, I am not holding my breath, but maybe, JUST maybe... the Vatican is REALLY growing some teeth over the moral issues of it's flock... particularly the wolves, who are merely POSING as Christians/Catholics...
It will be interesting to see the "fallout" from this announcement amongst what you call your "apostate" crowd...
I am thankful that John Paul saw fit to put this out for ALL of us to consider... Fact is, Jesus may not be pleased with folks who claim to love him, while killing innocents, for political gain... and moral indecency...
Good stuff... hope it impacts, FAST and HARD...
That would be refreshing indeed.

Jos 24:15 And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that [were] on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.
We at the Catholic Family Association of America are working on getting a private audience with the Pope to present
1)the excommunication petition, to Excommunicate Culture of Death "Catholics" and
If you have not yet signed the excommunication petition, its not too late!
And please keep our efforts in your prayers, especially that our private audience with the Pope is secured and schedulued soon, to coincide with these Vatican directives.

From your lips (fingertips) to God's ears, I too pray.
Including Catholics.
You don't know very many real Catholics, that's all.
That and a short memory. Mother Theresa wasn't exactly a rebel.
