Please pray for Cardinal Dolan, ping.
Feel free to add to the List.
Dolan heads the US bishops because he equivocates about everything. He’s just what they wanted. Most of the bishops care about nothing but “immigration reform” meaning increased membership and collections. He’s a gas bag, a phony and a liar. The BS that “nobody’s perfect”; “pray for him” and “what about Peter?” is denial. Dolan is a heretic. The American “Catholic” church is schismatic.
I am greived to read this, and I pray that it is not true.
We are living in the era of the greatest heresy since Arianism. Pope Pius X defined it as “Modernism” in his 1907 encyclical “Pascendi Dominici Gregis.” He said that it is the “synthesis of all heresies,” because it denies that God has revealed His will through Sacred Scripture and the Magisterium of the Church - and that it CAN be known. The famous statement, “Well, I don’t believe in abortion, but I would never impose my beliefs on anyone else” is a prime example of this heresy. It seems that Cardinal Dolan is also a prime example of someone who has fallen into this heresy, since by his actions he refuses to call sin what it is. The Ten Commandments are not the Ten Suggestions!
Arianism was eventually overcome by the Church and I know Modernism will be, too. But it took about 100 years to get rid of Arianism, so I would guess it will take the Church a long time to get rid of Modernism - especially since so many people haven’t even heard of it, much less know what it is.
Our Lady of Fatima, pray for us!
As the nation’s leading Roman Catholic bishop, Cardinal Timothy M. Dolan of New York has been spearheading the fight against a provision of the new health care law that requires employers, including some that are religiously affiliated, to cover birth control in employee health plans.
But even as Cardinal Dolan insists that requiring some religiously affiliated employers to pay for contraception services would be an unprecedented, and intolerable, government intrusion on religious liberty, the archdiocese he heads has quietly been paying for such coverage, albeit reluctantly and indirectly, for thousands of its unionized employees for over a decade.
The Archdiocese of New York has previously acknowledged that some local Catholic institutions offer health insurance plans that include contraceptive drugs to comply with state law; now, it is also acknowledging that the archdiocese’s own money is used to pay for a union health plan that covers contraception and even abortion for workers at its affiliated nursing homes and clinics.
“We provide the services under protest,” said Joseph Zwilling, a spokesman for the Archdiocese of New York.
Ted Kennedy taught Catholics all of those things before Dolan did, and no one listened. That's why the lesson is being repeated.
He burned incense at the altar of Caesar but did so "under protest" so no wrong done.
I don’t understand how Benedict XVI could have elevated this man to Cardinal. This is so sad.
