Links: Bishops, Communion and culture wars; getting tired of Twitter

Links: Bishops, Communion and culture wars; getting tired of Twitter 

The new. document is aimed at 2022 pro-choice voters, not Biden. Until you accept that fact, you are lost in the actors and missing the play. Neither the Visitor nor the Hill will give that fact away, for obvious reasons. 

Most industrialized nations have liberalized abortion laws based on popular will, not as an inherent right. Only in America is legal abortion anti-majoritarian and anti-authoritarian. The bishops cannot stand that last bit. Trump was a caricature of the authoritarianism some bishops remember fondly (although their idea of a golden age is twisted).  

Twitter thrives on soundbites. It is the ultimate tool for ideology on both sides. Movie titles are the ultimate sound bite.
