Cardinal Newman Society Joins Other Catholic Leaders in Statement on a Call to Civility

Today The Cardinal Newman Society, led by its Chairman J. Laurence McCarty and President Patrick Reilly, joined with other Catholic leaders in a response to the so-called "Call to Civility" issued by pro-choice Catholics.

CNS has long defended Catholic pro-life teachings and is proud to do so again today. 

The response, available in its entirety here, concludes:

In short, we will feel free even strongly to condemn the public policy positions of Catholic politicians who support abortion, embryo-destructive research, and homosexual marriage. They stand against the teachings of the Church and in favor of morally repugnant practices that are counter to the common good and that should be unwelcome in a just or even polite society. And we support bishops who move strongly to eliminate their grave public scandal. We say this not as Democrats or Republicans but as faithful Catholics.
