3 bishops rip Biden for officiating ‘same-sex marriage’

Say 'Catholics must oppose' such unions because of moral confusion

WASHINGTON –
Three U.S. bishops condemned Vince President Joe Biden for officiating at a same-sex wedding because it causes confusion over church teaching and “the corresponding moral obligations of Catholics.”

“Questions revolving around marriage and human sexuality are deeply felt in our homes and communities,” said the bishops. “We join with our Holy Father Pope Francis in affirming the inviolable dignity of all people and the church’s important role in accompanying all those in need. In doing so, we also stand with Pope Francis in preserving the dignity and meaning of marriage as the union of a man and a woman.”

Archbishop Joseph E. Kurtz of Louisville, Kentucky, president of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, was joined by two USCCB chairmen in writing a blog post about Biden presiding at a same-sex wedding of two longtime White House aides Aug. 1.

Catholics, by definition should be excommunicated for being Democrats or supporting Democrat policies - like abortion (killing) and same sex marriage (if a man, lie with a man).

Me, I excommunicate most dumbocrats because they're just plain stupid!

Since when are we all to be held to Catholic doctrine? Follow it, if wish, but it has nothing to do with the rest of us.
This was not a Catholic ceremony, it was a civil one.

Drew, Biden is Catholic. If he is going to claim to be one at least follow their teachings.

Biden is a Catholic so he is subject to Catholic doctrine.

Obviously, Biden can think for himself.

That is debatable Drew. He is not know for his logical thinking. Actually it is the opposite, however if he is going to claim to be something than follow how it is done or don't make the claim. You wouldn't understand such things. Your just here to push your gay agenda. Right Andy?

God forgive them for they know not what they say!
This is the new generation of ignorant millenniums who have forsaken God, country, and freedom good luck.

The lost and progressive ilk, prefer a Church that everybody is okay and accepted. No need for all that 'Christ died on the cross and took your place in hell ---so you could believe in Him, and have your sins forgiven. Why then don't we just start serving beer and offer up hookers between services, and while we're at it throw in some ash trays too? I know, you think what I'm saying is fantasy, and who could blame you? But here's the kicker ----you WILL BE HELD RESPONSIBLE for knowing the truth!! and what you did with it. So again, please laugh it up, but don't laugh too hard ---salvation is a limited time offer and the clock is running. We as a nation are running out of time. Most religions now are going along with the "NEW AGE" and It is all part of the HIDDEN dangers of the rainbow and its agenda to destroy us all.

Drew and 3:44. It your souls unless your atheist then guess you dont have on! Better hurry and get in line. They have a forehead numbers with your names on it since you are so excited about twisted libtard logic.

The Church is just full of contradictions and tests of the faith. It's also full of scholars and policy makers and politicians and risk management thinking.

as a life long catholic his behavior is appalling but since when has a democrat who claimed to be catholic stood up for the teachings of Jesus? the bishops brought this upon themselves by their liberal church agenda. may they have fun explaining their accommodation for sin above profits!
