Christine, our bishops are going to say NOTHING nor DO ANYTHING like the National Council of Churches.  

When civil rights activists during the 1960's were marching in the streets---the preachers and ministers were there.  There were some rabbis there.  Lay Catholics [included consecrated religious men and women] were there, but the Catholic bishops weren't even there in spirit.

It is the LAY Catholic who today carries the Christian message out alongside with other Christians----and people of good will---that the Common Good of All is in jeopardy as never before---and we won't be able to depend on the new President for anything.
