Catholic Democrats get their knuckles rapped (finally)

As I earlier surmised, the recent statement issued on behalf of 55 pro-choice Catholic democrats (asking for "room to disagree" with Church teaching on abortion) has prompted a counter-statement from Bishop DiMarzio as well as the Cardinals Keeler and McCarrick:

"While it is always necessary to work to reduce the number of abortions . . . Catholic teaching calls all Catholics to work actively to restrain, restrict and bring an end to the destruction of unborn human life."

Read the full story.

The bright lady who organized the letter, Rep. Rosa DeLauro, said she "appreciated the bishop's response."
