If you haven’t already purchased the Archdiocesan Directory for 2012, I would suggest you get one as a souvenir. On page L-3, there is a complete list of Catholic hospitals and health care institutions in Cook and Lake counties. Each entry represents much sacrifice on the part of medical personnel, administrators and religious sponsors. Each name signifies the love of Christ to people of all classes and races and religions. Two Lents from now, unless something changes, that page will be blank.
Francis Cardinal George, Archbishop of Chicago, on the HHS Mandate.
RTWT. The column from the Cardinal is very good, though too fatalistic.
This vicious thing can be stopped and rolled back.
This is a very good start. But it is only a start.
The church must also excommunicate apostates such as Pelosi and Murray. The Archbishop has no moral. authority if such as they are permitted to defy the church and lie with impunity.
The bishops asked for a lot of this. Obama saw them as weak. He doesn’t go after strong people.
Those institutions should be demolished before they are turned over. Very publicly.
