Abp. Listecki went through all the usual stuff......'the Church is not political,........legal and theological reasons prohibit political activity.........' etc., which was fine.
But then it got a little strange.
Listecki said the church "seeks to uphold and protect justice, equality, human rights, and care for God’s creation through ethical and moral decision-making."...Typically, a Church document's list begins with the most important item, then the second-most-important, (etc.) Here, there is no explicit mention of 'protecting innocent life'; instead, the far more general term "human rights" is employed--third on the list.
Did the Archbishop miss the November meeting of USCC in which it was determined that the abortion question would be "pre-eminent"?
Or doesn't he really care?

On James Martin's Twitter feed, they are praising Listecki's statement to the skies. In between declarations that Republicans want to gas Jews, etc.
The Ape Church is crumbling. The Catholic Church will emerge.
