Hi Buckeye,
Every single Catholic bishop in the US condemned the Obamacare mandate, every single one.
There are some other issues where the bishops might not be as strong as they should be, but I must say, having all 200 or so bishops opposed to Obamacare due to the HHS contraception mandate is a pretty good score on that issue.
Sure, the Bishops condemned it but talk is cheap.
The Church has done nothing, NOTHING, to hold anyone accountable.
When you lay down with dogs you get fles.
That’s nice that all 200 Bishops agreed to oppose the mandate.
If you were a not particularly politically aware Catholic attending my Church you might never have known that. We were told for 2 weeks before the election that “you can go to the Parish website to access a link to a video produced by the Conference of Catholic Bishops regarding their position on issues surrounding the election”.
I doubt even 1/2 of 1% of those present bothered to do so.
Pretty much the same story at surrounding Churches as well. Sounds to me like somebody got to our Bishop and convinced him not to antagonize the Union members in his pews or the local Democrat politicians.
