Catholic Church bishops are 'afraid to offend' powerful Democrats

Catholic Church bishops are 'afraid to offend' powerful Democrats, defrocked priest Frank Pavone says
Fr. Pavone says he's in 'a battle for the soul of the Catholic Church,' calls some bishops 'Democrat loyalists'
quote:
FIRST ON FOX: Outspoken Catholic priest and political activist Frank Pavone, the national director of the influential pro-life ministry Priests for Life who has been laicized, or dismissed, from the clerical state by the Catholic Church, told Fox News Digital this week that he is involved in a battle "for the soul of the Catholic Church."
He suggested, too, that the abortion issue is at the center of it.
Pavone, whose organization is headquartered in Titusville, Florida. also said that some bishops in the Church do not want to "offend" powerful Democrats and members of Congress — which is why they purposefully soften their pro-life message.
quote:
On Dec. 13, the Catholic bishops of the United States were informed that Pavone was laicized on Nov. 9 for his "blasphemous communications on social media, and for persistent disobedience of lawful instructions from his diocesan bishop," according to a Vatican statement.
Since 2016, "Pavone has posted tweets, Facebook statuses, videos and other social media postings urging support for the Republican Party, calling into question the validity of the 2020 presidential election and disparaging Democratic lawmakers," Catholic website Pillarcatholic.com reported.
quote:
Pavone served as a member of the campaign advisory group Catholics for Trump during the 2020 election, the same site noted.
Pavone explains issue from his viewpoint
Specifically, "they [meaning some in the Church hierarchy] got upset by a comment I made to someone who was arguing with me on Twitter, a Biden supporter," Pavone told Fox News Digital.
"It was in the midst of the nationwide frustration and anger of the 2020 election," he continued.
"I used the word ‘g**damn’ in a tweet, which I shouldn't have done, and normally never do."

Not sure if true or just sour grapes, but I would hope that no one who claims to be an under shepherd of Christ would care more for the opinions of man than the opinion of God. What ever happened to Peter and the apostles saying “we must obey God rather than men”?

“Good bye good men”
Read it if you want to understand what happened to the Catholic Church.
Yes I am Catholic and will remain one until my death but the leadership is corrupt

I was told in new gay bill. Church doesn't marry the gay couples. They can lose tax exempt status. Next year, they probably going fund abortion on 3rd collection.

i have said this for years. every damn church is having an internal struggle/war between factions.
E.G. look at all the churches who now openly ordain and marry homosexuals.
We are getting closer and closer each day to jesus' return.

First, I am Catholic, born and raised.
Second, his statement would be more accurate had he said this: Most bishops do not want to offend Satan, their master.
Satan has infiltrated the church. Satan has infiltrated our gov't. Satan has infiltrated almost all major corporations. You are their prey. This is not figurative speech.
