Bishop Jenky reminds me of the Lion of Munster http://the-american-catholic.com/2011/03/06/the-lion-of-munster/ Bishop Von Galen who denounced the policies of the Nazis.
Here is an except of his homily (from The Catholic Post) which is causing liberals to go into apoplexy.
Hitler and Stalin, at their better moments, would just barely tolerate some churches remaining open, but would not tolerate any competition with the state in education, social services, and health care.
In clear violation of our First Amendment rights, Barack Obama – with his radical, pro abortion and extreme secularist agenda, now seems intent on following a similar path.
Now things have come to such a pass in America that this is a battle that we could lose, but before the awesome judgement seat of Almighty God this is not a war where any believing Catholic may remain neutral.
This fall, every practicing Catholic must vote, and must vote their Catholic consciences, or by the following fall our Catholic schools, our Catholic hospitals, our Catholic Newman Centers, all our public ministries -- only excepting our church buildings – could easily be shut down. Because no Catholic institution, under any circumstance, can ever cooperate with the instrinsic evil of killing innocent human life in the womb.
No Catholic ministry – and yes, Mr. President, for Catholics our schools and hospitals are ministries – can remain faithful to the Lordship of the Risen Christ and to his glorious Gospel of Life if they are forced to pay for abortions.
Obama is the most pro-abortion president of all time, and now he is breaking more laws to force Americans to pay for abortion and contraception which is against Catholic belief. He is trying to bring down the Catholic Church by forcing her to violate her morality and then he wants to take over huge segments of society, health care, Catholic schools and universities, social services, adoption agencies. Then he will have the socialist state he wants. The one his mentors want him to create here; George Soros, Jeremiah Wright and Bill Ayers .
I was watching a film about St Dr Guiseppe Moscati of Naples, a doctor who fought the fascist takeover of Italian hospitals. It seems dictators must subdue the Church which is the sole bulwark keeping them from total takeover of society.
Thank God for Bishop Daniel Jenky, may he be an example to his timid fellow bishops! May lukewarm Catholics be awakened from complacency.
