For every bishop you named, there are more than double that number who have devoted themselves in service to the Lord through their dioceses and eparchies. This is the season of Lent. Perhaps you can use this time to pray for those with whom you disagree and offer encouragement to those whom you support.

For every bishop I named, there are twenty others who insist on giving Communion to abortionists like Biden, Kerry, Pelosi, etc. Only about fifteen bishops in the U.S. are not doing so.

The USCCB voted to adopt a document (Catholics in Political Life) in 2004 that says that a bishop may “legitimately” give Communion to abortionists.

The problem is that giving Communion to abortionists is always a mortal sin.

That is, the MAJORITY of the bishops voted to give themselves permission to commit mortal sin. And it’s a mortal sin that is eating the heart out of the Church in America, because it means that the laity who are resisting abortion are on their own, without support from most bishops.
