MSW Praises Chaput: Hell to Freeze Over Soon! | National Catholic Reporter

MSW Praises Chaput: Hell to Freeze Over Soon! | National Catholic Reporter by MSW.  MGB: Actually, the poor have a powerful lobby in Washington - the Church.  That is what was so troubling on Valerie Jarrett's gambit on contraception.  It damaged the working relationship between the Church and the White House - although I suspect Fr. Larry, Sr. Simone and Sr. Carol still take the White House's calls - and vice versa.  Only the bishops seem slow to come around - as well as USCCB staff - who also seem to have retaliated against the sisters for their support of the Affordable Care Act and their inability to be bullied on this issue - or any other.  As for "peculiar sexuality" - that is a consequence of self honesty, not the consumer culture or poverty.

As for Chaput - I think he is finally realizing he needs to get with the program Pope Francis is advancing.  Like any hierarchist, one never knows what he really thinks.
