When Pope Francis seemingly tried to equate the immorality of both major presidential candidates, he did not bring Kamala Harris' advocacy for the mutilation of children into the equation.
(https://youtu.be/q4voc3gnr-k?feature=shared)If hierarchy, clergy, the USCCB, state Catholic conferences, and (arch)diocesan staff (family life and pro life) do not have the fortitude to stand up and condemn outrageous crimes against God's precious children, they should resign.
As per the Catechism of the Catholic Church,
2297....Except when performed for strictly therapeutic medical reasons, directly intended amputations, mutilations, and sterilizations performed on innocent persons are against the moral law.90
The horror and moral repugnance of this is absolutely clear from the law that God has written upon our hearts.
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.
