Have you ever heard or read the term selective Catholicism? Not? This is possible because such an expression does not exist. If the concept is not, the practice is even more so.
And it hasn't existed since yesterday. Some individuals who claim to be Christian choose for themselves which commandments apply to them and which do not, in which life situations they apply and when the requirements of the Catholic religion are not mandatory. Just think of the worst cases, when unscrupulous mobsters kill without batting an eye, then beat their chests loudly shouting mea culpa at Sunday mass and calmly take the holy wafer after the holy confession...
The former president of the US House of Representatives - he was only there because the Republicans won the majority in the 2022 midterm elections, while she is a Democrat, so she resigned in November - is a model of selective Catholicism.
We believe and profess the command to respect and protect life above all else, but Mrs. Pelosi has somehow eliminated this from the Christian obligations. There are few more bloodthirsty pro-abortion activists who wear the steps of the Capitol (of course, there are plenty of accomplices, for example, the IQ champion Kamala Harris, who supported the killing of fetuses by the thousands and grinned during her years as vice president, or Sleepy Joe, who also calls himself a devout Catholic , i.e. Joe Biden, the demented American president), like this guy, whom he doesn't it bothers me that
abortion is nothing but feticide. This somehow fits into his majesty's conscience and Catholic faith.
In the life of the 84-year-old matron, 2022 brought not only the resignation of the presidency of the House of Representatives, but also a church ban. Being a representative of California's 11th electoral district, which includes most of San Francisco, she is ecclesiastically under the jurisdiction of the city's Catholic archbishop.
The archbishop, Salvatore Cordileone, decided that the pro-abortion politician's activity was contrary to the Church's teaching on the protection of life, so he forbade Pelosi to be absolved of her sins after the holy confession. As a result, he cannot sacrifice until he repents.
Yes, but the veteran Nancy is a full-blooded Democrat, so she knows very well how to evade decency. Can't donate in San Francisco? Not even for him, there is no such strictness in Washington. It doesn't bother him why he was banned from sacrificing, he pretends that he was just banned from a fast food restaurant. If you can't eat wafers there, then eat in another restaurant.
Does that sound profane? Because it is. Anyone who is unable to see that their actions are considered a sin in the Catholic Church, but the prohibition can be - formally - easily circumvented, is a non-believer, only a selective Catholic, or rather a formally Catholic.
He is characterized by the same mentality in his political activities. According to his confession, he ran for a new representative mandate at the age of 83 because, as he said, "our city needs us more than ever to promote San Francisco's values and recovery."
San Francisco's values today are about the same values as abortion.
The city is a real disaster, with its army of drug addicts dying or already dead on the streets, armies of alcoholics, and criminal gangs that rob freely, given that the lower limit of what constitutes theft has been raised, so robbery is practically allowed in the city. It's no joke, according to the criminal law reform of the leftist Chesa Boudin, the district attorney of the state, the legalization of shoplifting is necessary because "resources should be used to eliminate large, organized criminal groups instead of "petty" cases."
Bravo, San Francisco has become a real democratic paradise, full of Nancy Pelosi's values!
I believe that the representative evaluates this situation as a symbiosis of human rights and democracy, but it wouldn't hurt to ask the owners of the robbed shops, the ordinary citizens harassed by the drug addicts, the terrified residents of the neighborhoods occupied by criminal gangs, how happy they are with the democracy represented by Pelosi.
Nancy Pelosi has no intention of apologizing for all this, coming to herself, admitting her mistakes and sins. Instead, he goes elsewhere to make sacrifices, but even today in the silence of the confessional he does not confess that his attempt to kill a fetus is a sin against God and man.
Even if he does not admit it, the Lord has sent him a message. The great fighter against feticide fell down a flight of stairs during his visit to Luxembourg and needed hospital treatment.
It is not known what injuries he suffered, but he knows that God does not beat with a stick...
