“My Dearest Maureen, I have a confession to make. While some may think you sound like a delusional weepy woman, don’t listen to them. You see, I was in on those meetings with the bishops when we hatched plans to stick it to women and sabotage the Democrats. We met over drinks. Plenty of them. Except for one bishop who …

“We cannot pick and choose the books of the Bible, we cannot tear out pages, or cross out lines. Orthodoxy is to accept the whole of the Sacred Text, and to consider its claims with reference to the whole of Scripture and in keeping with its trajectory. For a Catholic, of course this is done in union with the Magisterium …

So sez Rabbi Yehuda Levin.

“President Obama’s comments today in support of the redefinition of marriage are deeply saddening. As I stated in my public letter to the President on September 20, 2011, the Catholic Bishops stand ready to affirm every positive measure taken by the President and the Administration to strengthen marriage and the family. However, we cannot be silent in the face of …

Led by bejeweled elderly men wearing elaborately embroidered gowns, on Sunday thousands of Catholics took part in a “rosary march” against civil equality in Minnesota. More photos at the link.

The Vatican’s official liaison to Britain has called for all religions to put aside their differences in superstitions in order to unite in battle against the civil equality of gay people.

The Vatican has strongly reprimanded America’s 55,000 nuns, saying that they are not being vocal enough with denouncements of homosexuality and same-sex marriage. In many ways, the Vatican’s actions against the LCWR encapsulated the kind of hard line that many expected Benedict — the Vatican’s former doctrinal czar — to take when he was elected in 2005. “The current doctrinal …

Right Wing Watch has the transcript: “Hitler and Stalin, at their better moments, would just barely tolerate some churches remaining open, but would not tolerate any competition with the state in education, social services, and health care. In clear violation of our First Amendment rights, President Obama – with his radical, pro-abortion and extreme secularist agenda, now seems intent on …

The Catholic Archdiocese of Seattle has launched a drive to distribute petitions in support of placing a repeal of same-sex marriage on the November ballot. “Treating different things differently is not unjust discrimination,” the bishops claim. “Marriage can only be between a man and a woman because of its unique ends, purpose and place in society. The word ‘marriage’ isn’t …

In an unprecedented case, Philadelphia Catholic Archdiocese Monsignor William Lynn is on trial for shielding pedophile priests. Yesterday jurors heard some of the most repulsive testimony yet. In the day’s most startling testimony, a detective read internal church memos about a priest who allegedly “joked about how hard it was to have sex with three boys in one week.” His …

As part of his confession, Father Edward Avery declared that his diocese had been aware of his crimes, but had allowed him to keep his job.

“In a sign of their growing intolerance of people who hold positions other than those of the Homosexual Cultural Revolution, the Media Watchdog Organization which calls itself GLAAD has issued a blacklist of commentators. The effort recruits likeminded parties to ‘spy’. They are asked to send reports in to GLAAD if these commentators are featured in local media. GLAAD will …
