From what I hear from priests in Levada's diocese he is always in Rome getting friendly with everyone. His goal is to be appointed to head one of the important Congregations.
He may be unwilling to take on USF because that would indicate to Rome that all is not perfect in his diocese.
"Thank you very much for bringing this important matter to our attention. I have scheduled a series of meetings with the people in charge of student health care to discuss the criteria used in deciding to include links to Planned Parenthood. Based on those meetings, we will make a decision on the accessibility of information.
Sincerely,
Margaret M. Higgins"
Obviously, they know they have a problem --if only a P.R. problem. At any rate, thanks to all who sent e-mails, and if you have not, please send one. The message is getting through--at least it is echoing around in some hollow heads. I mean if you need a meeting to figure out that this is an attack on the dignity of the human person, then heads must be hollow indeed.
As for Pbear8's claim that Levada is trying to climb the ladder, well, it does not follow that we should not swamp him with e-mails. God will judge Levada based on how Levada responds to our e-mails, and He will judge us based on whether we write to Levada at all. Sins of omission are possible on all sides of this one
And as for F16Fighter's claim that this is a sign that the Underworld is active in the Catholic Church...well, duh. The devil is prowling about like a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour. F16Fighter seems to think that Protestants are exempt from Peter's warning.
