They may be outraged now, but the American Catholic Church has been forging alliances with the secular state on social issues for too many years. Now, the Bishops who promoted and shilled for ObamaCare look like schmucks.
Excerpt:
"They got what they deserved", he said. "They fell into bed with the secular left, and then wondered why they force them to do what the secular left wants them to do."

Can you point me to the Bible chapter that gives bishops infallibility.
It’s not infallibility. It’s how Jesus told us to settle things and not go to court.
Talk to the person first, Then talk to the person while someone accompanies you, then go to the priest, bishop, etc.
I believe you know your Bible and know what I am talking about.
Point taken but IMHO: sometimes even Bishops need a sermon.
Sick with Rick he may be the real deal. I think he might clean up real good :)
‘“...canibus...”
Ben Frnklin smoked dope?????’
cannabis = dope
canibus = ablative plural form of “canis”: cum canibus = with dogs.
It would appear that Latin really is a dead language, at least in your neck of the woods.
What you cite is the method for disciplining believers within the Church.
Sen. Santorum is not disciplining, and is not in a position to discipline, any bishops. The bishops are not under his authority in any way, shape or form.
He is merely criticizing them and explaining that they caused this mess, and how they did that.

Yep, they are getting just what they have been asking for, but we do need to support them and try to turn it around, we can do this by supporting Rick Santorum.
Tact Rick...it’s called tact. Saying “I told you so” generally doesn’t help your own cause or win friends. I hope this is not how he will act in the future if he gets more success.
He is very close to losing my vote for not obeying the Bible and the Church on the way you treat Bishops.
1. Go to them privately
2. Go with someone else to speak with them privately
3. Talk with your priest about it. (privately)
4. Then talk to your Bishops.
What he did was rude and uncalled for.
Since this is a political rather than a private matter i would think the way he did it was the appropriate one.
