"Catholic University Allow[s] Someone who Strongly Believes in Partial-Birth Abortion"

Pro-Life, Catholic Advocates Complain About Michelle Obama Speech at Villanova
Philadelphia, PA (LifeNews.com) --

Another Catholic college is getting tagged by pro-life advocates for hosting a pro-abortion speaker -- this time Villanova University for a Thursday appearance by Michelle Obama. The wife of pro-abortion presidential candidate Barack Obama spoke before 2,500 people at a political rally for him at Villanova’s Jake Nevin Fieldhouse. Senator Obama's pro-abortion views are well-established and he favors keeping abortions legal another 35 years and paid for with taxpayer dollars.

Michelle Obama, also an abortion advocate, endorsed partial-birth abortion in a 2004 fundraising letter for her husband. Kristan Hawkins, the director of Students for Life of America, alerted LifeNews.com to the appearance and said it violates the pro-life and Catholic views of Villanova students. “It is disheartening to see a Catholic university allow someone who strongly believes in partial-birth abortion, a procedure which our Supreme Court even ruled to be barbaric and cruel, come to their campus to speak," Hawkins said. The pro-life student leader told LifeNews.com she spoke with Villanova's president who informed her that student groups, which invited Obama, are independent and Villanova officials can't control their activities.

ACTION: Father Donohue, the president of Villanova University, can be reached at president@villanova.edu. Please let him know you oppose Obama's visit. Full story at LifeNews.com.

He asserted that it is our duty as Christians to wear masks to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass if the government tells us we must, or they will close our Churches. My response to him was that I find it inconceivable that an orthodox Catholic, such as himself, would ever submit to unjust dictates from secular government over how we approach Our Lord in Holy Mass. My response to him was that the Mass belongs to Catholics and we decide, within the bounds of Tradition, and in accord with the Word of Jesus, how we conduct ourselves in Holy Mass. Only one authority prevails over Mass and that is our God and the Sacred Tradition given by Him to guide us in all times and places. Understand, there is nothing inherently wrong with wearing a mask to Mass. But there is EVERYTHING wrong with wearing a symbol...

Might Biden be a Liar & Predator like McCarrick?

September 15, 2020   Everyone knows that sexual predator ex-cardinal Theodore McCarrick is a liar. His whole life was a lie of betrayal of the most sacred vows he took and the violation of the moral tenets of the Catholic faith which he desecrated. Most people don't realize that part of this desecration of lies included lying for "gravely sinful" Democrats like Joe Biden. McCarrick protected Biden when then head of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger (later to be Pope Benedict XVI) wrote that bishops were not to admit to Communion politicians like "gravely sinful" Biden who supports the killing of unborn babies. McCarrick lied for politicians like Biden by ignoring the important parts of the Ratzinger letter and told bishops not to ignore the Catholic Church law.  Last year, Fr. Robert Morey denied Holy Communion to the “gravely sinful” Biden following a "2004 decree signed jointly by the bishops of ...
