As per a 7/16/24 email from the Pillar,
Trump...selected as his running mate Ohio Senator JD Vance....
Vance is a Catholic, having entered the full communion of the Church in 2019....
Vance said directly that he supports legal accessibility for mifepristone, an abortifacient pharmaceutical responsible for more than half the abortions in the U.S....
As it stands, the first (and only, to date) bishop to speak disapprovingly in a public way of Vance’s remarks on mifepristone is Bishop Joseph Strickland....
The GOP platform...seems to... deemphasize principled opposition to abortion, and...has dropped a man-woman definition of marriage....
We Christians care about issues like marriage and abortion not because we want to “conserve” something superficial, but because we want people to have better experiences than did their parents or their grandparents — we want for them the richness of experience rooted in being made in the image of a Triune God.
We want a stronger, more cohesive, more supportive and more meaningful society than the anemic “paradise” of sexual revolution and suburban atomization, because we know that we’re made for something more than that....
Supporting human dignity means something more than putting up a flag for the cause of the month.
On June 12, 2024, Republican senators issued a statement in support of morally repugnant IVF.
Joe Tevington is a proudly orthodox Catholic, a husband since 1986, a dad to two adult children, a grandpa to two, and a civil service retiree. He is a sign language fluent certified rehabilitation counselor with graduate degrees in deafness rehabilitation, religious studies/moral theology, & Christian counseling psychology, as well as a catechetical diploma and certificates in benefits planning and Catholic social ministry. He deeply appreciates Catholic teaching on the sanctity of human life and the sanctity of the transmission of human life, as well as how they are to inform us in our apostolates and ministries.
On much lighter notes, he fancies himself to be the foremost authority on his native Brooklyn, when it comes to architecture, cinema, geography, history, Italian food, stick ball, stoop ball, or wiffle ball.
