Catholic Democrats Appeal to ‘Primacy
of Conscience’ in Abortion Support

Original Article

Posted By: Imright, 6/20/2021 4:40:20 AM

Sixty Catholic Democrats in Congress have written an open “Statement of Principles” explaining why the Catholic Church should not deny Holy Communion to professed Catholics who promote abortion.The open letter was published online on June 18 to coincide with the June meeting of the U.S. bishops, who discussed, among other things, the question of “Eucharistic coherence” and conditions under which a Catholic should not present himself to receive Holy Communion.“As legislators in the U.S. House of Representatives, we work every day to advance respect for life and the dignity of every human being,” the letter states.

Demoncrat legislators work to "advance respect for life and the dignity of every human being." You see, people. That is why you should not be given communion. You are such liars and hypocrites, and as such, you are of your father the devil. You advocate for the murder of the most innocent of human life. Dignity is a word that is unknown to you. You sell your soul and your principles to the highest bidders, while pretending to be defenders of the poor. For Christians to uphold their principles is not an attack on you, unless you put yourself in opposition to the commandments of Christ and the Church.

They aren't Catholics. They are hedonists who, long ago died in the spirit, and now shambles along, groaning for the blood and brains of the unborn. Zombie Apocalypse indeed.

The "weaponization of the Eucharist" - what a horrible phrase! Someone was probably paid all kinds of money to come up with that contortion of truth! How about the Sacredness of The Eucharist? Or the Healing Power of the Eucharist? Or the Restorative Gift of the Eucharist? Or the Sacrament of the Eucharist? But, weaponization of the Eucharist? I do not think so. I think Christ said something about hot or cold, but not lukewarm. This is not lukewarm; this is very, very cold.

There's no such thing as a Democratic Catholic; it's a contradiction in terms. One is either on or the other but can NOT be both. Only reason they think they can exist is because Democrats overall are irrational.

The twoDocuments of the Second Vatican Council that have been hijacked and deliberately misinterpreted by the "liberal reformers " within the Catholic Church and has served them to confuse the faithful, giving rise to the notion that individual Catholics can all reinvent the God in their own image, to pick and chose and bend the teachings of Christ himself to their own, and to recreate the Catholic church as a democracy and Its teaching Magisterium malleable according to the will and current fashion of the world. One was on "Freedom Conscience" and the other "Sensum Fidelium" They deliberately disregard that both documents were tightly circumscribed by two crucial limitations: they were subject to the Teachings of Christ and the contents of the Bible, the Gospels in particular, and the absolute primacy of the Magisterium or Teaching authority of the Church, concerning issues of their application, interpretation and their development in the light of emerging issues and progress of God's people on earth.. Furthermore any exercise of individual initiative under both documents are only available to those who are fully cognizant of these two constraints. In other words both of those two documents were meant to be interpreted and to operate under the centuries old principles formulated by St. Augustine, a Doctor of the Church: "In essentials absolute unity and obedience, in non essentials, freedom subject to reason and knowledge of the truth ".

There is no such thing. However there is such a thing as a "false conscience" which is basically you telling yourself that you know better than God what is right and wrong. And murder is murder however you slice it folks. Here is an easy test for all those liberals. Can we destroy loggerhead turtle eggs if our conscience tells us it is OK?

FTA: "As legislators in the U.S. House of Representatives, we work every day to advance respect for life and the dignity of every human being,” the letter states. Since when is abortion "advancing respect for life and the dignity of every human being?" It is infanticide. It is a shame these deplorable legislators were not shown the same respect when they were still in the womb or birth canal.

FTA: “… the Catholic Democrats insisted they ‘seek the Church’s guidance and assistance but believe also in the primacy of conscience.’” Ah, conscience; the sinner’s favorite refuge. I doubt any of those sixty (60!) Catholic Democrats bothered to reference a copy of the Catechism and the section, “To Choose in Accord with Conscience.” There is no teaching on the “primacy of conscience”. On the contrary, the opening sentence is, “Faced with a moral choice, conscience can make either a right judgment in accordance with reason and the divine law or, on the contrary, an erroneous judgment that departs from them.” They obviously missed P 1789, entitled “Some rules apply in every case.” The first admonition is, “One may never do evil so that good may result from it.” I would say advocating for the murder of unborn babies, at any time under the guise of a myriad of excuses, as shown over 50 years that no good has resulted. The second and third instructions include the Golden Rule, and to respect one’s neighbor and his conscience. I would think they’d be made uneasy by P 1791, “…when a man takes little trouble to find out what is true and good, or when conscience is by degrees almost blinded through the habit of committing sin. In such cases, the person is culpable for the evil he commits.” FTA: “‘In recognizing the Church’s role in providing moral leadership, we acknowledge and accept the tension that comes with being in disagreement with the Church in some areas,’ they declare.” Their obstinacy is stunning. They think being Catholic is like being a Democrat, you can pick and choose on any given day. P 1792 would clear up their confusion, “… assertion of a mistaken notion of autonomy of conscience, rejection of the Church’s authority and her teaching, lack of conversion and of charity: these can be at the source of errors of judgment in moral conduct.” Its no wonder they had to acknowledge and accept the tension they’re feeling. Their sheepskin of Catholicism is about to be ripped off their backs and expose the ravenous wolves beneath. AMDG

Democrats who push this nonsense are 100% wrong, but they know it, and they don't care. But their efforts are getting results. They have the "bishops" actually considering this fatal contradiction, and to me, that is where the evil originates. Those who deny the word of God are lost already, but it seems to me that God has always had a special place for "priests" who defile the church.

#12 - Whomever told your mom in the '70's that she was excommunicated was wrong, and, obviously, did not know what he was talking about. A lot of seminarians in that period and beyond were taught by men who did not know or choose to believe Catholic doctrine, and, sadly, some of those men are still with us. There was no reason why your mom was not able to receive the sacraments if she was divorced. I'm divorced and I practice my faith. If she intended to marry again, then she would apply for an annulment of her marriage. I am sorry that some priest hurt your mom and prevented her from receiving the sacraments. Some of those same kinds of priests and bishops now rationalize why our "Catholic" politicians can support abortion and still receive the Eucharist. We definitely need term limits for many in our church hierarchy (especially, the bishops).

How "respect for life and dignity of every human being" is enhanced by denying those very things to the unborn, remains unclear. Maybe the Church and the Holy Father can provide guidance.

Theirs is the oldest argument in the world: God owes me what I want because I'm a good person (in my own eyes). They demonstrate by their stance that they are not Catholic, their words are the very best argument possible for why the Church should refuse their self-righteous demands. May God have mercy on their souls.

Anyone can claim "primacy of conscience" to justify undertaking horrible actions. Anyone can claim the "Holy Spirit" moved them to support abortion. No, DemonCrats. You don't hear your conscience or the Holy Spirit. Instead, Satan inspires you.

Deny dem communion should be the first step to excommunication. You can not support all these types of abortion & stand as a believer in the sanctity of Life. Communion is not a right it is given to those who stand with Christ. The Christ who loves children💖

If the justification for abortion is "my body, my choice". Then, other than rape, a choice was made. If passion is an excuse then many murders can be excused. To paraphrase Reagan - Consequences are stubborn things.

Maybe Catholic education is not what it used to be (although probably still way better than the government version). Fact is, and Catholics ought to know this, that "conscience" is not the "ME" thing that tells us what we want to do, what feels right, or even what we think, or "reason" to be right. Conscience is the voice of God in our souls. When anyone, Catholic or anything else, mistakes the voice of conscience for the sounds from/of their own proclivities, they are rejecting the only form of communication which will determine their ultimate end. The still small voice which saves us is not something to toy with.

To start off, so many wonderful informative posts, let me thank you profusely! I had the privilege of being taught by so many fully-habited, recognizable, religious sisters from the tender age of 3 and 4 years old. Then, had the extended privilege of 8 years of teaching from the soundly orthodox Dominicans, Sisters of the Order of St. Dominic on Long Island. They were learned, and informative when it came to matters of the Catholic Faith. Many truths and teachings have stayed with me over these many, many decades. One in particular is that, "We should NEVER listen to a false, or deformed conscience, but "A TRULY, well-formed Catholic conscience." We should listen and follow the Magisterium, the teaching authority of Holy Mother Church, NOT become our own false popes! Our first pope, St. Peter is to have forbidden abortion when he wrote 'The Didache' in 96AD, or as I refer to abortion after years of volunteer counseling, and lobbying, "abortional murder and infanticide." I am not a quibbler, but blunt. Our precious unborn children deserve to be honored and spared these horrendous, heinous surgical procedures, ending in their death! And lest we be caught up in the "game of numbers" via so-called democracy, we should stand united to Jesus Christ Our Lord, who died on the Cross for us. He, by this Glorious, Ultimate Gift of Self, became the Majority of One!! When Right is Right, then we shouldn't be cowed so easily by numbers. Although there are some clergy that have caused scandal in the Church, it is quite unreasonable to taint all of our members as perverts, or worse, We all have a tendency to commit sin, but I don't believe any of us can escape this, due to the universality of Original Sin. As far as excommunication goes, people who have mistakenly, and steadfastly chosen to be pro-abortion, have already excommunicated themselves, making a formal excommunication unnecessary, according to Canon Law. A habit of sound prayer should precede any moral decision. Speaking of habits, I have started to use the phrase, The HOLY Eucharist, not just saying, the Eucharist. It is, after all, the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity, of Our Dear Lord, Jesus Christ, following a valid consecration. Which is why IF any of us were to approach Holy Communion with a serious or mortal sin on our soul, especially Public "Pro-abort" Catholics, they would incur the penalty of making a Sacrilegeous Communion. The one, be they bishop, priest, deacon, or layperson, knowingly, would also be committing a Sacrilege, as well. This is no small matter. We may not impute individual guilt, since we don't know their state of mind, much less their soul, but should never cease to PRAY for those who appear to be leading us in SCANDAL. Hopefully, we don't do the same. Peace be on our heads, in our hearts, and our homes. Amen.

Like any religion ... there are rules and certain dogma that should not be questioned. To question such dogma, is to be non-supportive of the cause and thus you are proving that you are not a true member in good standing. The doubters and disbelievers stand outside looking in ... not inside looking out! If you don't accept a concept, keep your doubts between you and God and ask for guidance. That guidance may even lead you to leave the religion or seek out another variant. That's your business but don't mislead the faithful. Better for you to leave than to pull some away from their own path. The RC church has always said what God joins together (namely, sperm and ovum) let no MAN pull asunder. This means life, itself, is created in that moment and the newly made human is immediately imbued with a soul. Why would God wait to put the soul in at a later date? Thus, deliberately snuffing out that new life is to remove its soul from earth. Don't buy it? Fine .. go somewhere else. But that is the position of the Church you claim to be a member of in good standing!

The "primacy of conscience" does not mean "pro-choice." It refers only to an "informed conscience"; informed by the Holy Spirit, not by the DNC and planned parenthood. A "primacy of conscience" informed by "pro-choice" is how we got chattel slavery. It would be good if the bishops just spoke in plain language: We are teaching you that abortion is child murder. Period. You don't agree? Then find another place to hang out on Sunday, bc you are not worshiping God. Not in our eyes. We don't really care what you think or what anyone thinks who is not in our Church. You are not in our Church.

A WELL-FORMED conscience is able to exercise primacy, not a MALFORMED or UNFORMED one. When your mind and heart know the moral teachings, and you seek to follow, then it is possible for your conscience to be well-formed and exercise its primacy. Otherwise what you call your conscience tends to be your thoughts, feelings, desires, or passions.

This is far and away the most wonderful thread I've ever read here. Thanks one and all for taking the time to share your knowledge, explain Doctrine, and clarify the wording being used in contemporary Church writings. I am listening very carefully to the words and messages from our pastor now that we're back in church after lockdown. Today, especially, it was comforting to hear him speaking in support of unborn life. I pray that the reality of the abortion process comes to be realized by more and more people.

In American journalism, there are supposed to be some clear, nonnegotiable third-rails. One is zero tolerance for overtly racist language and comportment among our movers and shakers. Reporters, for example, for four years damned Donald Trump for his neutralizing summation that there were both “fine people” and extremists mingled among the hordes of protestors during their occasionally violent encounters in Charlottesville, Virginia. It mattered little to the media that Trump added qualifiers of “many” and “both” sides of the protests: We condemn in the strongest possible terms this egregious display of hatred, bigotry and violence, on many sides . . .

Now that Joe Biden has officially made Juneteenth into another federal holiday the activist left isn’t going to take time off to savor their victory. They have immediately mounted a push for the rest of their radical Critical Race Theory agenda.As celebrations took place throughout the country for what many are calling the “real” independence day, there were calls to pass the Democrats’ For The People Act. It has been obscured as “voting rights” for blacks but would really end democracy as it has existed. The bill is currently stalled in the Senate.

CNN’s Don Lemon wore his thoughts on his sleeve in Sunday’s Washington Post Magazine feature on him (published online last Tuesday). In more than one instance he vented to reporter Eric Easter about just how racist America and white people were, while at the same time unironically lamenting about how we didn’t show enough grace to other people. At one point he even suggested that America may not even see blacks as “fully human” at all.The headline for the interview clearly laid out where they wanted to take things with a quote from Lemon suggesting: “We’re living in two different realities as Black and White people.”

Disney has been accused of pricing out loyal customers by targeting affluent families with $800 hotel rooms and $100 sandwiches at its theme parks, despite having scaled back its 'magic' since the pandemic began. A family vacation to Disneyland - once the pinnacle of summertime for middle-class American families - will today set a family of four back more than $6,000. With the average annual income now standing at $5,725 a month, this means a visit to the so-called 'happiest place on earth' is increasingly out of reach to the average American family.

It was widely believed, and not without evidence, that the media, Big Tech, and other Democratic actors were pushing Biden into the White House with the hope that he could be replaced if certain developments occurred -- that is, if his failing mental condition or corrupt past made his continued occupation of the Oval Office problematic. (snip) Why have the media failed to sell Kamala Harris to their viewers as someone ready to jump into Joe’s shoes, if his advancing debilitation required it? There are two obvious reasons for this failure. One, Kamala Harris was an affirmative action pick for the second spot on the Democratic ticket

U.S. Representative Ted Lieu (D-CA) has challenged the U.S. bishops to refuse him Holy Communion at Mass, flaunting his support for abortion and same-sex marriage. “Dear USCCB, I’m Catholic and I support contraception, a woman’s right to choose, treatments for infertility, the right for people to get a divorce, the right of same sex marriage,” Lieu tweeted Friday. “Next time I go to Church, I dare you to deny me Communion,” he taunted. The Jesuit-educated congressman, who attended Cleveland’s St. Ignatius High School and Georgetown University, enjoys a 100% legislator rating from lobbyist NARAL.

Business owners and residents in New York City are expressing fury at the revelation that prosecutors have dropped looing and rioting charges against hundreds arrested during chaos that swept the city last summer. After 603 were arrested in Manhattan and the Bronx during the most intense days of looting last June, 295 of the cases have been dropped completely, according to NYPD data reported by WNBC-TV on Friday. Now Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance Jr and Bronx DA Darcel D. Clark are facing tough questions about why hundreds walked free after the looting rampage caused an estimated tens of millions in damages.
