Rick Santorum and St. Thomas Aquinas are right. The Catholic bishops have been wrong up to now. They have a fundamental choice to make. So do all Catholics
Santorum and St. Thomas Versus the Catholic Bishops
In a recent interview with Hugh Hewitt, Rick Santorum, a practicing Catholic, levelled some very harsh words at the Conference of Catholic Bishops. While siding with the bishops' recent opposition to President Obama's imposition of abortion upon Catholic hospitals, Santorum nevertheless stated bluntly that the Church "had it coming." Not only was Santorum right in saying so, but his words ought to initiate a more open public debate among Catholics regarding their leaders' consistent support of the political Left. The fundamental issue here is not abortion, but rather Christianity's position on the proper role of government.
