Links for 05/06/16 | National Catholic Reporter by MSW. MGB: I like Latimer's #12, which is an Emily LaTella move (Never mind). Unless Trump looks presidential in the debates, there is little chance he will be like Nixon in 1972. If he performs as expected, he will be more like McGovern.
The ACLU story is old. Whomever is working on that case should work on overturning Trap Laws instead. I actually favor Catholic hospitals doing early terminations, but only by induction and only with a priest on hand to baptize the dying newborn. The Catholic moral fastidiousness on this issue is what has condemned the late term unborn to a variety of grisly abortion measures that I would rather not think about as my noon meal settles. And yes, they are responsible for what others do because of their own moral priggishness.
The USCCB video shows more what is wrong with the Conference, both bishops and staff, than with Administration policy. The bishops want the right of moral scorn, not free religion, which is the moral equivalent of yelling fire in a theater. The days of Catholic religious power are decidedly over, even among Catholics. It is time for the reactionaries to shut up and follow Francis.
