Catholic priest during his homily today called Ted Kennedy "not a good Catholic"
Advertisements [?]
I don't go to church of my own accord any more. But my Mom is 90 and in a wheelchair and very devout, so I take her and sit with her for her sake. Today the (roughly 70 or 75 year old) priest started out his sermon with about 5 minutes of denouncing Ted Kennedy as "not a good Catholic" and "honoring his principles but not his faith," specifically regarding his support of abortion rights. He went on to expound on how each of us listening to this must honor not only our worldly principles but must honor our faith and its teachings at the same time. When I take her next week I'm going to insert a note into the collection envelope (with no money) but I'm still deciding what that will say. Any suggestions?
