The Late Cardinal Bernardin to Windy City Gay Men's Chorus |
Edit: In case it was thought +Vigneron was an improvement over his hapless predecessor, perhaps it was a bit naive to have entertained the thought that at last, after many years, the dry desert of Detroit, which truly is a post-modern wasteland by the way, was passing by. Not so.
One of his priests is campaigning for a local
Pro-Abort Democrat. He's ok with that.
Archbishop Vigneron is also an exponent of the "seamless garment" like his spiritual masters, like the late
Cardinals Bernardin and Cushing.
If you want to trample on the Church's teachings, that's ok, but just don't try and put on a priest hat and try and do-it-yourself like
Micheal Voris did, or there'll be trouble. As reported from the American Dream Talkshow:
Detroit archbishop OK with priest’s radio endorsement of liberal candidate
By Jay Mcnally on July 31, 2012
For long-time Detroit Catholics it is barely news that Detroit Archbishop Allen Vigneron is permitting a prominent left-leaning pastor, Fr. Norman Thomas, to publicly endorse a liberal candidate for Congress in advertisements on a major radio station.
The new page in the continuing saga of the archdiocese’s participation in the Culture of Death — even as it simultaneously panders to the pro-life movement – is the public endorsement of pro-abortion candidate for Congress, Hansen Clarke. He is running in Michigan’s 13th District, which covers a large swath of the city of Detroit. Fr. Thomas is pastor of Sacred Heart Church, which is located in Detroit.
I discussed this scandal on my radio talk show last Saturday, on WAAM 1600.While I normally broadcast live from the plush WAAM studios in Ann Arbor, I called in to my radio sidekick and fill-in, attorney Chip Kleinbrook. To hear my commentary, click here on these links. The commentary is in two parts, the first two minutes of the first link are about the swelting Kansas heat, then Chip and I discuss the scandal of the political endorsements.
