The Catholic ...Anonymous needs to remain anonymous. The Catholic Church does not abandon moral high ground because a small percentage of its clergy violated children. The facts are that most of these act were homosexual in nature (homosexual acts being just fine with the current culture) and not pedophilia. And Kathleen Sebelius is not just exercising her duties as a public official; she is forcing her pro-abortion agenda onto this country. I’m glad her bishop has told her to refrain from Communion. She ought to leave the Church as her actions betray her so-called Catholic faith.Brian Dnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35367405.post-83256556477819836562008-05-26T20:49:00.000-04:002008-05-26T20:49:00.000-04:00The Catholic Church has abandon any moral high gro...The Catholic Church has abandon any moral high ground it ever held. Any organization that claims to be doing the will of The Almighty and actively conspires to allow serial pedophiles to run free in society has no business telling anyone how to live. Remember this is a land where church and state are separate. All the politicians are doing is upholding the US and or state constitution as they are sworn to do. If the church had obeyed the laws of the land, had rendered unto Caesar, they would not be paying out billions in reparations to all the victims of their abuse.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35367405.post-76711649764209758592008-05-15T16:22:00.000-04:002008-05-15T16:22:00.000-04:00Catholics have the freedom to express the truth as...Catholics have the freedom to express the truth as they see it, but preaching the truth is not the same as coercing the truth.<BR/><BR/>Is it prudent for Catholic leaders and teachers to choose one issue above all others and approve without discrimination any person or law that labels itself pro and condemn any person or law that can be labeled anti?<BR/><BR/>Why not just simplify things and say, "Democrats are bad and Republicans are good? Catholics may not in good conscience vote for a Democrat or hold office as a Democrat!"<BR/><BR/>This seems to be far from the way Benedict XVI would teach and act. Benedict presents the Truth in a way that reveals its beauty and proportion and, as a good shepherd, he invites us to follow.<BR/><BR/>Personally I am against abortion because it is killing. I am also against killing in war and in capital punishment. Catholic teaching is very clear about these issues but it is not coercive.<BR/><BR/>If American Catholics really followed Catholic teaching they would have stood with the Pope and the U.S. Bishops rather than following President Bush into an unjust war.Burtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06798970671178636435noreply@blogger.com
