Ping!
given the infestation of the administration with “pro choice” Catholics, I daresay the US just might be Ground Zero (no pun intended) for a face off between church and state.
Then the Vatican should make sure priests follow the ruling.
Just say NO to abortion.
It’s about time.
Now someone needs to talk with that git who had on a Roman Collar and was argueing with Fr Mitch that it is permissable for priest to give communion to pro abortion politicians.
Here is a great article about the Knights of Columbus in Massachusetts. Sixteen members of the Knights of Columbus voted to stop the gay marriage question from being put on the ballot. They stopped the people of Massachusetts from voting on the gay marriage issue.
The leadership of the Knights are very liberal and pro-abortion. They are sabotaging those members of the organization who are faithful to the church’s teachings. This is not just about the Kennedy’s thumbing their noses at the church. The Democrat politicians have been using the Knights of Columbus for their selfish political gain for many years. It didn’t present a problem because at one time there was no coflict between the Democratic Party and the Catholic Church, but now the Democrats are in total defiance of the Catholic Church’s teaching but they are still using the church and the Catholic organizations to promote their political fortunes. The Catholic Church and the Democratic Party has had a strong alliance for many years because so many Catholics were Democrats but now the Democrats are showing their total arrogance and contempt for the church. They are shamlessly using the church and they are trying to tell the church what to do.

In reading about abortion, I do wonder why more teaching is not directed to women and those in abortion clinics in addition to the politicians. All this makes it look like politicians are the cause and if they would vote in a certain way, abortions would disappear. Wondering.
Down with the CINOs. Don’t re-elect these guys and gals.
Communion is expression (and not the means) of unity of belief. Logically, those who support abortion cannot claim (comm)union of belief with the teaching of the Catholic Church and therefore cannot receive the Catholic Eucharist. The issue couldn’t be clearer.

Obama Says A Baby Is A Punishment
Obama: If they make a mistake, I dont want them punished with a baby.
My husband commented to our Pastor on Thanksgiving that he was glad that Bp Tobin had “taken on P. Kennedy” over the abortion issue and had written him a letter of support. Our Pastor merely commented that he “didn’t agree” and dropped the subject. Now my husband is furious. He said to me that the priests had no problem taking on parishioners over money — why not take on the politicians over abortion?
