text: True this is a Catholic publication...and since this nation is an enlightened culturally diverse nation respecting all;   its values exceed reputed Christian values with civil values which are humane, decent, accepted and respected and known as universal values of good will directed to universal care health, fitness, financial relief, housing, safety, education and so forth.
  When the church directs its activities to charities, housing, hospitals,  nursing homes it is to be applauded.  When the church invades the political spectrum filing suits contrary to the benefits bestowed upon citizens by ACA, civil unions, medical research eg. stem cell research, labeling its faithful as disordered, one issue voting, denial of its sacrament to divorced and remarried,  it is not doing so well.
  Finally, a number of bishops have found a silent voice and have come forth loudly in support of immigration...what is needed are more 'profiles in courage'..specifically regarding the corporal works of mercy
