The Catholic Church is Calling Out GOP PRO-LIFERS to Smarten up about their support of NRA!
Stand Up To The NRA!
Catholic leaders call on ‘pro-life’ lawmakers to ‘stand up to the NRA’
A coalition of 60 Catholic theologians, priests, Catholic sisters and others from the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops released a statement on Wednesday calling out so-called “pro-life” lawmakers like House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) and Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) for refusing to work to curb gun violence after the mass shooting in Newtown, Connecticut.
The statement obtained by Faith in Public Life includes retired U.S. Ambassadors to the Holy See from the administrations of President Barack Obama and former President George H. W. Bush. It says that lawmakers who claim to represent family values should also “show greater moral leadership and political courage when it comes to confronting threats to the sanctity of life posed by easy access to military-style assault weapons and high capacity magazines.”
This is like a GOD-SLAP to the hypocritical GOP Congress members (and others).
We all make choices, almost every moment we're alive and sometimes walking a straight line with our beliefs can be a rocky road.
It must be So confusing and difficult to support being Pro-Life with a gun in one's hand, and a bible in the other..
No wonder Rep. Boehner is always on the verge of tears.
No one can really Have It Both Ways and live well with self.
