Hyde Tells Bishops “Don’t go wobbly on us” on Pro-abortion Catholic Politicians   Henry Hyde is “greatly disappointed with the failure of much of the US church hierarchy to take an unequivocal stand on abortion.’’ ‘‘If the church doesn’t come out strong and condemn those who want to receive Holy Communion while not in the state of sanctifying grace, then the church has lost its moral authority, and that is tragic.’’ The ‘‘consistent life ethic,’’ originally proposed by Cardinal Joseph Bernardin (linking nuclear freeze and the death penalty to abortion), Hyde says, provides ‘‘people like Ted Kennedy, Dick Durbin and John Kerry the cover they seek to maintain their Catholic affiliation and at the same time pander to Planned Parenthood.’’ Hyde is saying to the Catholic bishops: ‘‘Don’t go wobbly on us.’’  https://www.suntimes.com/output/roeser/cst-edt-roes12.html   Sex abuse among teachers more common than among priests https://www.pittsburghlive.com/x/valleyindependent/news/s_198758.html   US Senate Adds Sexual Orientation, Gender to ‘Hate Crimes’ Law https://www.cnsnews.com//ViewCulture.asp?Page=Culturearchive
