And sadly, you have described some bishops – they’ve been in there so long, in a life where they were never forced to scramble for a living, nor to make a profit to keep a business from going bankrupt, they fail to understand their own hypocracy.
I have. When you cut income taxes on the top brackets and raise property taxes on everyone, at the end of the day you have shifted the tax burden from the rich to the poor and middle class. i applaud the Minnesota bishops for saying that is wrong and I think people like you who criticize the bishops are serving the interests of the rich against the poor and middle class.
Well, you Nazis have not done a whole lot to make this world better.
Lisa, don’t be such a crying wimp. You call me a Communist and then you get all teary eyed and hurt. Boo-hoo.
Which would be everyone who actually experienced the Nazis.
I love the fact that long after you have shot off your mouth, you finally start asking some questions. Maybe in the future you would like to reverse that sequence.
But you’d be better off than someone who had the same income and DIDN’T own a home.
Now, Katherine dear, remember you shot off your mouth about abortion not being illegal at the time the Constitution was written. Maybe you should follow your own advice.
Where did you learn to be so rude?It appears you lack the capacity or the quality of discernment to realize this and the questions above are rhetorical. Abortions are medical procedures that public employee health benefits pay for and you, as a taxpayer, fund those benefits.
As to your suggestion that Nazis are right wing, sorry but there is NOTHING right wing about Nazis. The only people who consider them such are not very conversant with the actual characteristics of right/left wing politics.

Not criticizing reminding them of their duty and what is NOT their duty.I know it.
The Minnesota bishop are fighting to keep programs in place that save unborn lives and you are criticizing them.
Such programs are debatable. The issue itself is not. If the support of the program gets in the way of the spiritual duties they have lost their way when they should be leading the way. If those programs prevent them from proclaiming the Truth, the battle is already lost.
It is not a question of what I prefer. You put the either/or on me, but the either/or condition is on the bishops. They can support that program but they FIRST have to proclaim and defend the faith. If support of that program has them allow public scandal, they cannot support the program. You cannot allow evil to do good.
The bishops need to defend God first, the unborn second. If they cannot uphold the Truth of the sanctity of life by preaching the Truth and discipline those who publically profess Catholicism and then support abortion, they cannot win the battle as they have declared defeat before fighting.
Bingo!
Bu they are not getting their taxes cut. The rich get their taxes cut and the middle class pays more and the Nazis are happy.
Minnesota law prohibits the use of tax dollars for abortion.
Minnestota Statute 145.935 says you are wrong.
Yes and yes, except no one is changing the sales tax (though that would be a good idea). The bishops of Minnesota object to cutting the income taxes for the rich at the high brackets and raising property taxes on lower income people. And a bunch of posters here (including one little Nazi) call the bishops every dirty name in the book.
Like your post about there being no law against abortion when the Constitution was written, this is wrong too.
Vern, try to follow the discussion. We are talking about Minnesota state taxes. Even the Nazis understands that.
Well, I guess that’s Minnesota’s problem, isn’t it?
Vern, Vern, are you paying attention?
