Bishop Martino says "No!"

Congrats and kudos and yes, the coveted Rockin' Traddy award are all bestowed to Joseph Martino, Bishop of Scranton for speaking out against "catholic" politicians that support the war being waged on the unborn.

From the Daily Review:

“I will not tolerate any politician who claims to be a faithful Catholic who is not genuinely pro-life,” Bishop Martino said in a pastoral letter Sept. 15, 2005, and reiterated this week.

“No Catholic politician who supports the culture of death should approach Holy Communion,” Bishop Martino said. “I will be truly vigilant on this point.”


It's about time that Bishop Martino and Bishops from all over the country start standing up for what the Church teaches in a straightforward, direct manner.

Please pray for Bishop Martino and for all Bishops. Their job is especially difficult.

For, once I can unequivocably cheer when Bishop Martino says "No means No" and that decision will not change!
