The occasional, often ill-considered thoughts of a Roman Catholic permanent deacon who is ever grateful to God for his existence. Despite the strangeness we encounter in this life, all the suffering we witness and endure, being is good, so good I am sometimes unable to contain my joy. Deo gratias!


Although I am an ordained deacon of the Catholic Church, the opinions expressed in this blog are my personal opinions. In offering these personal opinions I am not acting as a representative of the Church or any Church organization.

Pro-Abortion Catholic Senators

15 Catholic senators recently voted among the majority to table the Nelson-Hatch-Casey Amendment to the Senate's health care bill. The amendment would have continued the prohibition of federal funds being used for abortion by extending this prohibition to the health care bill. I list these fifteen unfaithful "Catholic" senators here:

Mark Begich (D-AK)
Maria Cantwell (D-WA)
Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME)
Christopher Dodd (D-CT)
Richard Durbin (D-IL)
Tom Harkin (D-IA)
John Kerry (D-MA)
Paul Kirk (D-MA)
Mary Landrieu (D-LA)
Patrick Leahy (D-VT)
Claire McCaskill (D-MO)
Robert Menendez (D-NJ)
Barbara Mikulski (D-MD)
Patty Murray (D-WA)
Jack Reed (D-RI)

Pray for their conversion; and if they refuse to accept the teachings of the Church, vote them out of office. It's the least we can do.
