I told her who I was and what I wanted and that was probably a big mistake because I haven't heard from her either. That's ok cuz I'll just stop in and find her myself tomorrow when I go through Scranton.

Maybe Dougherty simply owns the BUSINESS and has it set up in the guild building?

I do see the distinction you ment...Father Bechtel!<br /><br />I do see the distinction you mention. One brings ruination to the soul privately, and the other brings ruination, plus scandal to the Church as well. And when a public official thumbs his nose at Church teaching with no consequences, Bishops set very dangerous precedences, with the result of this cafeteria Catholicism we see in every diocese in the world.<br /><br />Now if I didn't believe in something the Church taught, say killing babies in the womb, I would probably denounce my faith, and find a "church" more in keeping with what I believe. I wouldn't try to change the Church's teaching, nor would I prance around like a saint pretending to be a good Catholic. Who do these people think they are fooling? Don't they know that the One who matters has already seen into their heart? <br /><br />Makes you wonder if they actually believe in anything, or are they just going through the motions, keeping up appearances. <br /><br />And where you offer Doherty prayers, he needs to see some wrath. He obviously doesn't believe what the Church believes, he needs to see a negative reaction to his announcement. There has to be consequences, and you attack that which he values most, his pocketbook. <br /><br />I'll never go in The Guild again. I hope my readers don't use them either.The Rockin' Traddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13655979831127314413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1336117984422102655.post-39658996526842016122009-09-07T19:47:26.833-04:002009-09-07T19:47:26.833-04:00You are so right---abortion is murder.

Until people get it through their THICK HEADS that it is NOT ALRIGHT to claim allegiance to the Catholic Church and be pro-abortion, we CANNOT move on to the "other issues."<br /><br />My problem here is two-fold: 1) That Dougherty feels quite free to dismiss Church teaching, and 2) (more importantly) that he feels quite free to come public with it- he does not even respect his Faith or his Church enough to keep his opinions in the private realm.<br /><br />Sir Rockin One, you might disagree here, but I think it is one thing to struggle internally with Church teaching and give assent. I think it quite another to publically dissent, disobey, and disgrace the Faith you claim allegiance. <br /><br />Though I am angry as Hell, Dougherty needs our prayers right now, not our wrath. Father forgive him, he knows not what he does.<br /><br />Father Dave BechtelAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1336117984422102655.post-78269001439879745862009-09-07T14:01:52.726-04:002009-09-07T14:01:52.726-04:00Thank you for alerting the readers.

What steps can be taken?<br /><br />What is Gary Di Bileo's position on abortion?
