Pro-Obama Catholics Fooling the Faithful

(Denver, Colorado) The Archbishop of Denver, Charles J. Chaput, and his auxiliary bishop have issued an alert and warning to faithful Catholics to not be fooled by pro-Obama Catholic organizations promoting ObamaCare. The legislation remains fatally flawed regarding abortion.

"Regrettably, groups like Network and the Catholic Health Association have done a grave disservice to the American Catholic community by undermining the leadership of the nation’s Catholic bishops, sowing confusion among faithful Catholics, and misleading legislators through their support of the Senate bill," the bishops write.

"Do not be fooled. Nothing has changed. The Senate bill remains gravely flawed on the issues of abortion funding, conscience protections and the inclusion of immigrants. Unless seriously revised to address these issues, the Senate version of health care is unethical and should be firmly opposed," the statement concludes.

The pro-Obama Catholic organizations are not part of the hierarchy of the Catholic Church.
