Pro-homosexual Bishop John Stowe justified his dissent from the USCCB by stating that 'without the environment to sustain human life, you can't have human life.'
LEXINGTON, Kentucky, September 16, 2020 (LifeSiteNews) – Bishop John Stowe suggested last Thursday that the environment is the preeminent issues for Catholic voters to consider, not abortion. “They are both critical issues,” the pro-homosexual bishop of Lexington, Kentucky, admitted. “I think an argument could be made that … creation is the preeminent issue, because without the environment to sustain human life, you can’t have human life.”
The bishop of Lexington, Kentucky, made his remarks during a webinar hosted by Catholic Climate Covenant.
We have to look at what office are we voting people into – what office are we electing for and what is their role in that office,” Stowe continued. “We’ve seen what the current President can do by withdrawing from an international treaty about protecting the environment, and the effect that that has had immediately.”
On the other hand, the bishop said, “We have unfortunately lived with abortion as interpreted as a right since 1973. After many administrations of both parties, that hasn’t changed, so when we look at just the immediacy and the role of office and what effect they have, I think that can weigh in on that decision.”
Stowe also criticized the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) for its document “Forming Consciences for Faithful Citizenship,” which included language qualifying abortion as the “preeminent priority” for voters to be concerned about.
“The threat of abortion remains our preeminent priority because it directly attacks life itself, because it takes place within the sanctuary of the family, and because of the number of lives destroyed,” the bishops wrote.
In another place, they added, “In our nation, ‘abortion and euthanasia have......

Stick a fork in the catholic church. They’re done.
You would think his priority would be the Gospel and the work of Christ.
So the bishop IS a Spawn of Satan?
Fork has been in them for quite some time now
Nature’s more important than people?
“You are worth many sparrows.”
Stowe gives me the creeps…big time!
Sixty million murdered innocent lives vs. the snail darter?
we are one of the cleanest most modern nations on earth- We’ve done enough for the environment- and global warming, which is all natural by the way, will NOT destroy this earth- we have at least another 1007 years left guaranteed- 78 years of trib, and 1000 year reign of Christ-
the earth will be just fine for at the very least another 1007 years
Taking the advice of Archbishop Vigano, let’s be perfectly clear:
The is no such thing as a “pro-homosexual bishop” just as there is no such thing as a “pro-homosexual Catholic”.
Homosexuality is against the teaching of the Catholic Church. To be in favor of something that is against the Catholic Church means that a person in not in communion with the Catholic Church. To not be in communion with the Catholic Church means a person is excommunicated from the Catholic Church. Therefore the person mentioned in this article cannot be a bishop, and we are under no obligation to care what he says.
The Gospel should be the preeminent issue for John Stowe, but he worships Mother Earth instead of Jesus Christ.
Sorry faggot lying sack of shit faker who doesn’t represent Jesus at all
Life. Babies. Is And will always be the preeminent issue in politics
Tell that to the ImPopester.
You saw that inconvenient truth as well: 63 million aborted babies. And yet this “catholic” environmental group focuses (like their pope-in-name-only) on the democrat’s racist-environmental-sexual agenda!
Stowe makes James Martin seem heterosexual.
From another way of looking at it, a very old religion indeed.
