text: Now, I read the litmus test for a true church is to be against abortion. Now, this issue is irrelevant for me, as I don't wish to procure and abortion for myself, being male, and neither to I wish to facilitate another's getting one. I am forced to deal with the issue because some Catholics can think of nothing better to do. 
           Sr. Simone Campbell manages to do better, as does Pope Francis. American Catholics are a problem for themselves which I am not going to solve for them. I hope we don't have to have a national catastrophe before we come to our senses. 
          Cardinal Bernadin promoted the concept of the "seamless garment" where moral issues contributed to a whole, after the pattern of Jesus' cloak for which the centurions cast lots on Calvary. He was pilloried by the extreme right for moral relativism. 
          It might be better to stop reading this online altogether. The lack of sophistication and self-understanding and spiritual maturity displayed is sad.
