Catholics make it abundantly clear
where they stand according to who they
vote for in civil government.
As Bishop Fulton Sheehan once put
it, “A nation always gets the kind of
politicians it deserves…”.
The trendy “Progressives” become very
obvious in the manifestation of evil
they fail to correct, but could have.
Currently around 45,000,000
abortions occur per year globally. This
unpunished killing of the most
vulnerable for essentially spurious
reasons, is enhanced by the consistent
increase in legalisation of abortion .
Catholics who voted in the government
that favours legalisation become part
of this evil, since the ONLY way to
defeat it is simply the voters ballot
box. This attitude alone would make the
politicians think twice before passing
any bill that allows for this wrongdoing.
But it is clear that such morality does not
enter either public or church debate.
It should come as no surprise to see the
birthrate fall as a consequence.
The primary initiative occurred in 1966,
when the Humanist conference in
Asilomar California passed a motion
for elective abortion. In 1967 Colorado
legalised abortion, and this has spread,
globally, so that the EU penalised Poland
(pro-choice penalising pro-life) to the tune
of one million Euros per day, for
non-compliance with EU policy.
Catholic Poland.
If the anti-thesis to Secular Humanism
was stronger, that is if mysticism was
stronger, S.H. would not get a look in;
and if Catholics embraced this view,
abortion would not be legalised. Instead
Catholicism gets negatives. Very sad.
Scandalous. And scapegoats are found,
to keep deflecting attention from such
issues, which is a classic ploy in basic
cowardice.
Anthony Fisher Archbishop of Sydney
made a pointed remark on the subject
of the plenary: It should not become
another SECULAR NGO. (“The Australian”)
Many things could have been introduced
into church without any plenary. But now
that there is one, there should be NO EXCUSE
for this not to happen. Propaganda on
indigenous etc., simply deflects attention from
the main problem. The late Bishop Michael
Putney asked for propaganda- and he got it.
But WITNESS took SECOND PLACE as a result.
Martyrs have a place in the catholic church
besides its saints. Mystics before Trent were
essentially its theologians. Is this true today?
Or is it that psychology has twisted the minds
with much casuistry?
