Not for me.

You're not a representative of the Church.

I don't want bishops endorsing or railing against specific named candidates. It's a cheapening of their mission.

And have the Bishops been vigilant in their mission?... What a joke! They've kissed Satan's ass in order to remain in 'powerful positions', and allowed Jesus's flock to be slaughtered daily. Oh, to be sure, not all the Bishops have been so lax, not even half; perhaps not even 25%. But where the Hell have the other 75% been when it was time to face Satan's servants?

I didn't say anything about endorsing or railing candidates. Why can't O'Malley simply enforce Church law? Which is: Those in a state of mortal sin cannot receive any Sacraments, except for Confession.

More Amchurch exceptions for Amchurch "Catholic" baby-killers by Amchurch bishops.

Nothing new.

Funny how John the Baptist didn't see calling out Herod the tetrarch as cheapening his mission. I thought that the mission was the salvation of souls. Calling leaders onto the carpet was part of the job with many of the prophets.

It is sad when the leaders of the church are more concerned with temporal status than eternal life.
