Fr. Frank Pavone: Going Backward, or Staying Faithful? Pro-life Leader Responds to Pope Francis
Guest Post By Priests for Life Leader Frank Pavone, National Director, Priests for Life Pastoral Director, Silent No More Awareness Campaign
I’ve been asked by quite a few people to share my reaction to the recent words of Pope Francis about Catholics in America replacing faith with “ideology” and being “reactionary.”
He stated, “You have seen that in the United States, the situation is not easy: There is a very strong reactionary attitude. It is organized and shapes the way people belong, even emotionally.”
Now this is one of those informal comments he is in the habit of making. And Church teaching is not conveyed by informal comments of the Pope.
