Fraternal Correction - So I really am my brother's keeper???

"If I tell the wicked, 'O wicked one, you shall surely die,' and you do not speak out to dissuade the wicked from his way, the wicked shall die for his guilt, but I will hold you responsible for his death.  But if you warn the wicked, trying to turn him from his way, and he refuses to turn from his way, he shall die for his guilt, but you shall save yourself.'' 
(23rd Sunday in Ordinary Time, 9/6/2020)

  • Priest of Archd. of Boston – @bostoncatholic – openly supports the abortion position of Dems and #Biden2020 (8/28/2020 update from Rev John Zuhlsdorf)
    "A priest writes that he is with the Dems abortion platform and he says he received 'uncharitable' responses?!? Hang on. Telling him he is WRONG is, in fact, charity… at least when done in a measured way."
    • Click to email the Apostolic Nuncio, the USCCB president, Cardinal O'Malley, Archbishop Perez (as well as his auxiliaries), and Bishop O'Connell, for an IMMEDIATE, unequivocal correction of this nonsense from Msgr Garrity.
  • Philadelphia archdiocese asks two priests to undo hasty church renovations (CNA, 8/27/2020
    • And who will be paying for the renovations/restorations?
  • Neither Casey, Nor Fitz, Nor Fitzpatrick sign 8/12/2020 letter asking end to tax breaks for abortion.
    • Two Lower Bucks Catholic h.s. alumni vie for the same seat in Congress.... (7/7/2020)

"Love does no evil to the neighbor; hence, love is the fulfillment of the law."  
Like parents for a wayward child, that love can require correcting a wayward sibling!

      • In rightly asking us to advocate for school transportation for all students (https://www.votervoice.net/BroadcastLinks/FMMTkN3gUSYvGi4yr6Wafg), the Pa Catholic Conference states "School districts are required to provide transportation to both public and nonpublic students, even during the pandemic."  LONG before the pandemic, that has NOT been happening with the Morrisville school district.  Though stuck with paying for the Morrisville School District, Morrisville families are forced to paying for high school transportation to nonpublic schools.  Please remind state representatives (RepWarren@pahouse.comJgalloway@pahouse.net), the state senator (senatorsantarsiero@pasen.com), and the U.S. representative (BriFitz8@gmail.com) of their duties to their Morrisville constituents.  They should be urging other districts to accept a merger with Morrisville (which is woefully shy of students) and/or advocating a voucher system that would truly benefit ALL families.

          “Get behind Me, Satan! You are an obstacle to Me. You are thinking not as God does, but as human beings do." (22nd Sunday in Ordinary Time, 8/30/2020)


          22nd Sunday in Ordinary Time, 8/30/2020

          • "The family has to take on the task of rebuilding society, for no other institution is prepared to....Every parent with half a heart wants his child to become a happy adult, and when you cut through all the discourse everything boils down to two goals: developing in the child the capacity for hard work and the capacity to attract a good spouse.... each generation succeeds when the new generation is ready to dedicate themselves to raising future parents. Given this central measure in society’s success or failure, the ultimate measure of every other institution is whether is it facilitates these two goals. This is the measure, not just of the family, but of the church (at the natural level), the school, the marketplace and government. If, in practice, they are stumbling blocks to these two goals one can say that whatever blocks these two goals is dysfunctional (or even more bluntly, evil). Many may disagree but only if they are prepared to say they do not care about raising children and they do not care about the common good.... the goal is rebuilding the foundations, way more important than putting a man on the moon, or building 5G global connectedness for everyone, or renewable energy that never fails" (Pat Fagan, PhD, 8/20/2020)

          (Catechism of the Catholic Church)

          • "For those of us who recall Senator Biden’s leadership in crafting the most racially biased drug and incarceration policies throughout the 1980s and 1990s, it is difficult to take him seriously when he claims to believe that black lives matter to him.... The NAACP called the Biden Crime Bill a 'crime against the American people'.... most of us realize that Biden is the same person he was in the 80s and 90s—a person who was willing to say or do anything that would help him get elected" (Crisis Magazine, 8/19/2020).
