"...More than 75 professors at Catholic University and other prominent Catholic colleges have written a pointed letter to Mr. Boehner saying that the Republican-supported budget he shepherded through the House will hurt the poor, the elderly and the vulnerable, and that he therefore has failed to uphold basic Catholic moral teachings...."
Just what are super-Catholics Newt Gingrich, Rick Santorum and John Boehner to do? Burning abortionist at the stake just doesn't go over well anymore...
In a statement on the Vatican website, Pope Benedict XVI made a bold “call to action” for “all people in all nations.”
"...We are committed to ensuring that all inhabitants of this planet receive their daily bread, fresh air to breathe and clean water to drink, as we are aware that, if we want justice and peace, we must protect the habitat that sustains us. The believers among us ask God to grant us this wish.
The bold remarks came after the Pontifical Academy of Sciences (PAS) presented new evidence on climate change to the Vatican..."
The true hypocrisy of the 'moral majority' is about to under-reported by the American media.
As you well know they are Catholic only when it is to their political advantage to be. Newt especially can ignore the Pope and fundamental Catholic teachings with the sure aplomb of someone who thinks he is smarter that everyone else.
