- Dogma - “a doctrine or body of doctrines concerning faith or morals formally stated and authoritatively proclaimed by a church.”
- U.S. Constitution - “no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Officer or public Trust under the United States.” Article VI
- Dick Durbin - “Do you consider yourself an orthodox Catholic?”
- Cecile Richards - Planned Parenthood Harpy - “In times like these, you can’t underestimate the importance of leadership. Planned Parenthood thanks Senator Durbin for fighting for a woman’s access to essential health care no matter where she lives,”
Senator Dick Durbin is nothing if not a clown; an oafish clown at that.
Even the
Chicago Tribune Editorial Board of Bruce Dold has been forced to offer a very grudging and tepid criticism of Senator Dick Durbin's oafish treatment of a candidate for the Federal Bench.
Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., told Barrett that “the dogma lives loudly within you” and worried that it might take priority over the impartial administration of justice. Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois asked, “Do you consider yourself an orthodox Catholic?”
It may seem out of bounds for senators to raise the matter of how a judge’s Catholic faith would affect her decisions. But the senators didn’t raise it; Barrett did, in a 1998 law review article examining the obligations of Catholic judges in death penalty cases. It concluded that judges faithful to church teachings “are morally precluded from enforcing the death penalty.. . . Given that Barrett said judges shouldn’t let religious faith dictate their decisions, the exact content of her Catholicism, which Durbin wondered about, is irrelevant. He and Feinstein also erred by putting the issue in terms that could easily be interpreted to mean they distrust devout Catholics. That gave Barrett’s supporters room to accuse them of indulging bigotry and imposing a religious test for office.
It’s an implausible charge on its face. Both voted to confirm John Roberts and Sonia Sotomayor, who are Catholics. So, by the way, is Durbin, and Feinstein graduated from a Catholic high school.”
Without offering the slightest suggestion of Progressive Secularist Orthodoxy within the twin Senators' Inquisition, the
Chicago Tribune failed to call-out real bigotry. Feinstein and Durbin 'tested's.Barrett's faith in order to block her appointment to the Federal Bench.
The official religion of the Democratic Party and a very husky hunk of the GOP is Progressive Secularism and worship at the altars of Diversity, Mother Earth, Abortion, Globalism and Oligarchy is all but legislated.
Chicago Tribune columnist and political Latitudinarian John Kass, honestly reported and commented on the oafish and obvious dogmatism of politicians in the pay of
Planned Parenthood. This writing savaged the bumptious Durbin.
Bruce Dold seemed compelled to toss out some dish water prose to wash away the blood on Durbin's face.
Durbin
went all witch-hunt on Ms. Barrett, in order to show fealty to Planned Parenthood's blood money.
Arthur Miller would have shivered the timbers of the Commonwealth were he alive to pen a new
Crucible.
You see, Durbin, is a renegade. He took the coin of the industry most out of orbit of the Roman Catholic Church - the Abortion Industry. He not only took the coin but used the office of United States Senator to further its power and influence.
The Catholic Ordinary of the Diocese of Springfield, Bishop Thomas Paprocki noted this in 2014 -
“Senator Durbin was informed several years ago by his pastor at Blessed Sacrament Parish here in Springfield that he was not permitted to receive Holy Communion per canon 915 of the Code of Canon Law,” Bishop Paprocki reportedly wrote in response to a pro-life activist's query, the Illinois Review reported. “My predecessor upheld that decision and it remains in effect. It is my understanding that the senator is complying with that decision here in the Diocese of Springfield in Illinois.”
Canon 915 states that those who have been "obstinately persevering in manifest grave sin are not to be admitted to holy communion."
No taking of the Eucharist for Durbin in his home diocese, but I am certain he will be admitted to the rail at Holy Name Cathedral, where Pastor Pfleger-approved Cardinal Cupich welcomes political powerhouses. Take that like doctrine, brothers and sisters, because Cardinal Blase Cupich will offer no criticism of Durbin, Emmanuel, Preckwinkle, Pfleger or Duckworth. He will offer no reminders to his media friends, Michael Sneed, Carol Marin, Mary Schmich, or Rex Hupke that the media must afflict the comfortable and comfort the afflicted.
Cardinal Cupich wants to be loved, by the powerful and their stooges - he is. He banned guns from Catholic Churches.
This Sunday I will leave my 9mm on the kitchen counter where it belongs, Priase Jesus!
The Rev. Michael Pfleger, pastor of St. Sabina Catholic Church and a prominent activist against gun rights, said after surveying clergy, the late Cardinal Francis George chose to leave it up to priests to ban firearms from individual parishes. On Tuesday, Pfleger praised Cupich's decree.
"There has been this kind of madness, in my mind, a growing obsession that guns are needed to be safe," he said, adding, "With that reality growing day by day, it is a tremendous statement for the cardinal to say for the church, we are not buying into this madness. In our buildings and our properties, we are not going to allow guns."
Guns kill people, like pencils flunk tests.
Cupich sought and received the imprimatur of Pastor Pfleger and wears it like his pallium.
Even Mary Schmich, aswell as The Seeker Manya Brachear, says nice things about Cardinal Blase.
Cardinal George afflicted the powerful and comforted the powerless. Cardinal George acted more than he proclaimed.
Cardinal George did that and the stooge media detested the man.
Durbin is living
Progressive Secularist Dogma.
He only turns to the faith of his fathers when he needs a photo op with some Knights of Columbus.
Dogma Dicky Durbin does doctrine. He is clown, but a very dangerous and powerful clown
