Why doesn't Cardinal Mahony talk this way?
Bishop Robert Vasa (pictured above) of Baker, Oregon, in his March 1 column (click on this post's title) in his diocesan newspaper, the Catholic Sentinel, has told the truth: Politicians may not call themselves faithful Catholics if they support aborting babies.
His column was about how the Rite of Election for prospective converts is a decision that changes how they will live, and how our belief in the Real Presence of Jesus in the Eucharist must affect the way we live our lives.
Without naming her, Bishop Vasa quoted Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi's January disgraceful regurgitation of the tired pro-abortion cliche, if you are against abortion, don't have one, but don't tell somebody else what she may not do.
To that, Bishop Vasa answered:
"...to choose to terminate the life of another human being...is an unjust choice which is diametrically opposed to the clear and consistent teaching of the Catholic Church as well as to the clear and consistent teaching of God Himself in the Ten Commandments. The direct, intentional taking of the life of an innocent human being is inhumane and unjust. It is not just a choice!
"It is categorically impossible for the same person to state that he or she believes simultaneously both what the Catholic Church teaches and that abortion is just a choice. What we believe must inform what we do."
Some Californians lately have been moving to Bend, Oregon, which is in the Diocese of Baker, or building homes for retirement there. They will hear the truth about abortion from their Catholic bishop. That is a luxury these days, at least in some dioceses.
Why won't our Cardinal say it: "You can't be Catholic and pro-abortion!"

DOES MAHONY OPENLY SUPPORT WOMEN PRIESTS AND BISHOPS?
Anaheim, CA- According to eye witness accounts, Cardinal Roger Mahony at his annual dissent fest, the Archdiocese of Los Angeles Religious Education Congress, has now come out in the open with his until now all too apparent but not confirmed support of women (feminist) priests and BISHOPS.
The eye witnesses have stated that Cardinal Mahony, at the closing of his heterodox Mass, turned to the many altar girls plus one altar boy and stated “And it is such a good idea that the coming years the other Auxiliary Bishops (laughter as he is looking at the altar servers) will take over (still laughter). Thank you very much”. Then he turned to give the final blessing!
Considering the fact that the late Pope John Paul II forbade even the discussion of women priests, let alone women bishops, in my humble opinion, this places Cardinal Mahony clearly in the category of a HERETIC!
Thanks to the support of many volunteers, “Concerned Roman Catholics of America, Inc. was able to put into the hands of those attending this dissent fest thousands of tabloids that had been specially prepared for this Congress.
Kenneth Fisher, Founder & Chairman of “Concerned Roman Catholics of America, Inc. (CRCOA, Inc.)” stated that next year we hope to have even more volunteers to help us pass out even more of these special tabloids”. He further stated that this year more and more of the attendees came up and told them “you would be pleasantly surprised if you knew how many of us inside are really in support of what you are doing, please keep it up!”. Fisher further stated that it is apparent that without the Hispanics, they would not have been able to distribute many of the tabloids and that the reception rate was probably in the neighborhood of 10 percent Anglo, 20 percent Asian and 70 percent Hispanic. The fact that only a small percent of the Anglos present were even willing to accept the tabloids, is ample evidence of the destructive influences of pope Roger!”
According to Fisher, another very sad testimony to the lack of orthodoxy at this Congress was the apparent lack of decency in the way too many of the women in attendance dressed, even in some cases those who were in the presence of their priests who should have been the ones to correct these blatant acts of defiance of the Church’s teachings on this matter! He further stated that he highly questions the numbers of attendees commonly quoted in the press, he does so because those increases in numbers were not apparent, and in fact he feels the numbers have actually been DECREASING!
