Agendas for Pro-Life Meetings

Agendas for Pro-Life Meetings
In pursuit of the truth - cinops be gone - Monday, Nov. 19, 2012
By pro-life, I also include pro-marriage and family.

“But the Lord sits enthroned forever. He has set up his throne for judgment; he will judge the world with justice, he will judge the peoples with his truth.” Today’s Liturgy of the Hours - Let’s have some plain talk and tough love!

1. A negative presidential campaign which included lying and smear attacks was successful in winning the presidency of the United States. It was particularly successful with young voters under thirty years of age. It failed with older voters. The problem is that the younger voters made it possible for the passage of same-sex marriage in four States on Nov. 6th.

Everything possible must be done by pro-life to stop same-sex marriage in any state of the union and in California. Let us share some ideas on what needs to be done!

2. Even if we had an ideal Catholic as the nominee for President, we would have lost in California and states similar to California with a large Catholic population. We would also have reelected the CINOP, What does this tell us of the mindset of Catholic Bishops and clergy leadership in these States? Are they responsible for the reelection of the CINOP in their diocese?

3. The New York Times and L.A. Times are to America what the Catholic Colleges and Universities and Catholic magazines like America, Commonweal, and National Catholic Reporter are to the authentic Catholic Church in America. I mean the Catechism of the Catholic Church. What am I really trying to say with the following reality hitting my face. “While most Catholic colleges and universities REMAINED SILENT about federal threats to religious freedom CNS (Cardinal Newman Society) stood with the bishops and faithful Catholic colleges to oppose the HHS “contraceptive mandate.” [From the Desk of Patrick J. Reilly, President, November 6, 2012]

I hate to see a presidential election won by the unelected news media. They did it in this election and in past elections. Please check out again the book by Tim Groseclose, “Left Turn” How Liberal Media Bias Distorts The American Mind. There are few articles posted on this blog.

4. There is a collapse and betrayal by the elite in our country with respect to common sense and the values of traditional America. And among Catholics a total lack of leadership in the public arena. They are afraid to be called bigots on marriage between one dad and one woman with children. This secular religion of toleration and change of fundamental beliefs is sickening.

5. Catholic writers and official newspapers of the Roman Catholic dioceses failed to educate and inform Catholic readers on fundamental issues involved in this 2012 presidential election campaign. I will give you two headline examples: a) Our Sunday Visitor, Oct. 28, 2012 a good article by Russell Shaw. The Headline of the story was: “Pro-life and social justice Catholics increasingly at odds.” Whoever was responsible for the headline was a sympathizer for Barack Obama’s re-election? The so-called social justice Catholic politicians are for intrinsically absolutely abortion on demand, same-sex marriage, embryonic stem-cell research, etc. It is time to call a spade a spade. It is a painful scandal and disgrace to live another two years with Congresswoman Loretta Sanchez.

In like manner, check out Orange County Catholic- October 2012 issue with article by Father Gerald D. Coleman, S.J. Who titled that story as follows? “Election 2012: Mission Impossible?” This is an insult to the intelligence of informed Catholics! Also check out Spanish insert in that that edition titled, “Romney, Obama Demarcan Enfoque Diferentes Sobre Immigracion” Por Patricia Zapor, Catholic News Service.

We have a new bishop coming. I hope he makes changes so that Catholics in Orange County will be better informed and save marriage in California. Texas is a pro-life state and we can learn a lot from Texas. In the end, pro-life and family have to do it with some new ideas along a pathway of education and orthodoxy.

George H. Kubeck - If possible, set aside the first 3 Thursdays of each month from 9-10:15 AM. We meet at Chick-Fil-A Restaurant at the corner of the 605 Fwy. & Carson Blvd., Long Beach.
