The Archbishop of San Francisco issued a scathing statement saying the pro-abortion Women's Health Protection Act (HR 3755) passed by Congress is something he'd expect from a "devout Satanist" rather than a devoted Catholic.
Pope Francis spoke on the topic of abortion and Catholic politicians who publicly support the barbaric practice during a flight back to Rome from Slovakia, telling reporters that the Catholic Church has no plans to change its teachings on abortion, but that Catholic leaders should seek to counsel abortion-supporting politicians privately before taking the extreme step of excommunicating them from the Church.
The archbishop of San Francisco has criticized President Joe Biden, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and other Catholic politicians who have attacked new abortion law in Texas, suggesting they have violated core church doctrine.
As a former citizen of a communist country, the bishop is very much opposed to the 'sanitary dictatorship' that is being set up in so many countries under the pretense of fighting COVID-19.
About whether he 'disregards' the Ten Commandments Pope Francis said, 'No. I observe them, but not as absolutes, because I know that what justifies me is Jesus Christ.'
